Snow for Christmas · **Released**: 11-25-2006

Snow For Christmas
(not supported)

This is a VERY simple addon that will give the effect of snow falling on your forums, its great for the holiday season, and makes it an easy way to give your forum that holiday feel without doing a bunch of editing or theme changes.

Step 1. Download the attached snow.zip (unpack it) and upload the snow.js to your forums root
(you can also edit the snow.js to change, speed & amount of snow that falls)

Step 2. Go to ADMIN > STYLE MANGER > your style > HEADER
In the "header" box add this code:

Code:

<!-- Start Snow For Christmas Code -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="snow.js"></script>
<!-- End Snow For Christmas Code -->

(this will make it snow on all areas of your forum)

If you only want the snow effect to be seen on the main page of your forum then do Step 3 instead of Step 2

Step 3. Go to your styles "FORUMHOME" and add the above code just under the "<head>"

This has only been tested on 3.6.2 using IE6

To stop this effect after the holidays, simply comment out the script code like this:

Code:

<!-- Start Snow For Christmas Code -->
<!-- <script type="text/javascript" src="snow.js"></script> -->
<!-- End Snow For Christmas Code -->

(this demo is using STEP 3, snow only on the FORUMHOME)

put the snow.js in the folder where your forums are installed

most likely "/forums" or "/forum"

i think its something in the movement of the snow coz when the snow changes its diraction from right to left this thing happens

The problem is at the X direction of the snow since it keeps on changing every (30 by default) seconds.

It does the same thing to me too cause I have pasted it above the header but it doesn't bother me at all

Problem i have found is....

I run StonyArc's vbgooglemap Hotspot Edtion and when you add this script then all but 3 of the flags (hotspots) dissapear and if you stay with either firefox or ie open at the hotspot page then the cpu process will be 99%

Take it off then all is well

Other than that works fine.

Any ideas?

vb 3.6.4
1.4 hotspot
CMPS v2.2.1

Add to the "adv_portal" template under head. Make sure the file is in the right place too.
