Falling snow

I remember seeing a while back a way of putting falling snow on the background of a website using WD7.

I have searched the Forum, but cannot find how to do it.

Can anyone help please?

And another here [zip file linked to in post] http://board.xara-users.info/viewtop...=8&t=899#p6006

Your zip file seems to have gone AWOL?

Only popped out for a cuppa ... patience ;))

Just got it from the demos folder. Works great. Thanks!

I thought I'd see if I could do something by just using XDP so this evening I threw this together. Enjoy :D

XAR files attached for those inclined to delve further! Feel free to use if you wish ;)

• Attachment 85785
• Attachment 85786 (flash XAR is 9.5Mb, so not attached)
• (font file not attached but you can easily find your own Gothic typeface on Dafont)
  

That's nicely done, l will definitely be inclined to delve further. Thanks for sharing

thanks for all the suggestions

Just came across the effect that neodeist posted, and LOVE it! Using it on http://www.tilthenight.com/home.htm at the moment.
Couple things though, for one it doesn't seem to work at all in Internet Explorer, is this to be expected? And in Google Chrome, some of the flakes come in as white boxes, however when previewing the page in Google Chrome from Xara it's flawless. Also Flawless in FireFox.

Also, Would it be possible to do this on a ProBoards based forum where I only have control of the sites headers and footers? http://www.thegreysonchanceforum.com

Thanks!

Instant-Snow tweak to add to the Tweakset http://board.xara-users.info/viewtop...t=3468&start=0 :-)

Just curious, is it necessary to leave the Paste Board unlocked, after you place the file. Also, does it need to be placed on the lead page of the site, or on each page?
Thanks, Giddyup

No and Arrange>>Repeat on all pages :)
