Happy Holidays, This is a snow effect script. It is done with no images. Uncle Jim's Web Designs

Place the following code underneath the body tag:

iH=(document.layers)?window.innerHeight:window.document.body.clientHeight;
iW=(document.layers)?window.innerWidth:window.document.body.clientWidth;
for (i=0; i < N; i++){                                                                
 Y[i]=Math.round(Math.random()*iH);
 X[i]=Math.round(Math.random()*iW);
 S[i]=Math.round(Math.random()*5+2);
 A[i]=0;
 B[i]=Math.random()*0.1+0.1;
