Falling snow

Could someone please help me with this?

Please give me some good with falling snow. I don't want it to be like gif images or anything. I want JavaScript snow made of * or . symbols and explanation how to change some thing s about it (like font, color, speed, and that all). If you can't explain, than just give me some good code, please!

I need as soon as possible for my dear Forum

Hmmm, i've tried one time somes scripts with "*", but those scripts doesn't work... Only one working script, i found is that from Gunhack X, but it is with .gif images... You can change the snow image, if you want, but another scripts don't work (by me).

If you're interested, take a look at this topic:

I took this code and added some explanations :

Code:

Tell me if it doesn't work. I am sure it will

where to put it?
in css style sheet?
i put it and there was written
wrong marks

Put it on the Homepage message.

Can some one tell me how to get the snow to fall to the bottom of the page? the one I have it doesn't fall all the way down.

I use this one in my site desciption:

Code:

<script src=http://s2.wordpress.com/wp-content/plugins/snow/snowstorm.js type=text/javascript></script>

It even stays a little while on the bottom. Pretty cool

To get my snow in other places I put the code in a blank widget and put the widget on the portal and the forum and now it snows everywhere. The only thing is that the blank widget looks tacky so if you have a widget you can edit and put the code in, it wouldn't look tacky.

Thankyou Yimir i will try that...Enjoy your day♥

Oh nooooooooooo i think i broke my forum...i put the code in my google search widget...and now it keeps closeing IE...i've emailed one of my other admins to see if she can delete that widget for me cause i can't even get into my forum

Did you put it in your description? I used the same one and it falls on all pages. Sorry to hear about your page, please keep me informed.
