What is the forum version?

Thank you for getting back to me

The forum version is phbBB3

I believe that is only for phpbb and punbb as it requires templete editing and phpbb3 doesn't have that as an option. I am not aware that you can do it with css.

If you can find the code you can use the HomePage Popup to put it in, but sorry, I don't have the code.

Thank you for the replies.

Yes I have used the main page for snow but need one of poppies.

I am sure it can be done and will have to ask around with someone I know who does IT for a living only trouble is it cost

Once again thanks

wish i could help with this one, considering its purpose. It is possible to do via a phpBB3version that i do know. would like this one myself.

There's a code for falling leaves somewhere around here...

Create six (really tiny) poppy images (smoothness will depend on the file size, the code says). Upload them to your IMGServe, or to TinyPic (whichever you prefer to use), and replace the parts of the code in red with the image links you're given.

Thank you hopefully it will work not being the best at IT it might take sometime

Well if someone with mod powers could edit my code to make the red parts actually red, it would help

Basically look for anything in [color=red] tags and change that.

Youy would need to edit the templates and add that code into it but like I said above, phpbb3 doesn't offer template editing

No, you put it into the Site Description. Works the same way for PHPBB3.

EDIT:

Sorry, for this size of code, it would go in the Homepage Message.

Falling poppies here

http://www.amarasoftware.com/flash-animations/poppies.html


Having downloaded the flash animation I have uploaded it into an image hosting site...Could you please tell me how to get the poppies to float down the whole page, apart from copying and pasting the code into the Homepage Message Box which only allows them to appear in a section at the top of the page.
