It was subtle enough I didn't notice it at first.  Very cool!

That's just weird.

Sensitive?

Is the snow effect sensitive to the weather as we're getting a blizzard here on the east coast and I'm getting more snow on my page.

I know, the snow is still up.  Dave will be taking it down, but he's busy at the moment.  One thing I noticed though is that the snow collects at the bottom of the screen, very briefly, before melting away.

Can we lose the snow? It was cute at first, but it often slows down or completely stalls my page load. I didn't want to be considered a grinch at Christmas time (as I often am during the year) but it's now February.

Oddly Enough

Thanks, I missed it at first too and then realized it as I was perusing the page.

I don't know if it's the operating system or the browser, but when I view the page at home on my PC using Google Chrome, the snow falls right to left.  When I view it on a Mac at school using Safari, it falls left to right.

A Christmas miracle?

I must have had my mouse over to the right hand side at the time.  It's a wireless mouse so I guess the falling snow would be more sensitive.

First I didn't notice it, then I saw it but I thought it was hallucinating, and then I figured out that it was really there.  And that it changed direction when I moved my mouse.  Dave, are you the one to thank for this holiday loveliness?

Are we Riftians? Riftees? Or Members of the Round Table?

Ohhh!

I didn't realize it followed the mouse.  Cool!

And yes, Dave slipped this in there.  Nice work, Dave.  Thanks.

If the snow keeps falling, you'll have a chronic drift...

Watch out for the yellow snow.
