Snowfall on your Blogs


What can be more delightful than welcoming your blog visitors with falling snow. The script that we would use today is provided by dynamic drive and creates an animated effect. The snow smoothly falls down the page and then disappears. We can control the number of snow balls and also the time after which they should disappear. You can easily replace the snow image with any image you prefer. The installation as always is kept extremely easy. Lets add some falling snow to our blogger blogs!

  1. Go To Blogger > Design
  2. Choose HTML/Javascript gadget
  3. Paste the following code inside it,


<script type="text/javascript">

  // Configure below to change number of snow to render 
  var no = 15
