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 -->
