Lags the serve?Based on personal experience this hack has not lagged the sever, unless you have a database server that offers free space. If you want a good website, upgrade or switch to a server that has plenty of space and bandwidth for the massive site you have. HaHaHa.

I'm only playing, but if you want to complain, give a reason that can be believable. This hack is so small it will not lag or reduce the performance of your website or server provider.

I have a couple complaints or suggestions, due to IE. I have a customized style, which your hack works perfect, but in default vBulletin style it doesn't show snowflakes properly. Many of my users agree that they see nothing, but X's in a box, dropping like rainfall. In IE under custom style the snowflakes are perfect, but in FireFox Browser there is never a problem with either styles.

Funny thing is, when I am in FireFox, the snowflakes are consistent in every style, but when viewing in Internet Explorer all styles are not consistent. Custom style in IE is perfect, but in vBullentin default style a snow flake shows up as a box with an X in the box. The box reacts as an raindrop on a window rather than a snowflake.

Any suggestions to my problem will be very appreciated. Thanks Brad

It can't lag your site because it isin't server-side javascript; its client-side javascript. The only way it might lag certain user is because they have a dinosaur computer that can't handle movement on screen or a browser that can't fully parse the javascript.

I have been trying to upload it but it didn't work for me. I have 3.6.8 vBulletin version. D'ya guys think that this is the reason why it didn't work?

[Mudo]

when do you upgrade it.

[GuaRRand]

could you add a function that we can schedule the seasonal effects?
Most effects are for holidays... those holidays are already default in VBulletin calendar .. can you hook it up to that so it will automaticly load witches at haloween, hearts at valentine's day, snow at the beginning of winter etc... (maybe a sun also for summer?)

I just installed this today. I am totally illiterate when it comes to these things, but this was actually pretty easy.

I also figured out, as many of you said, that if you rename a gif to any of the names and replace them in the ghost folder you can have any image you want

[zombietom]

any new images for this --i would like a zombie face or something like that
