...Customization Guide to modify the effect

This widget script is very advance and without any flake png image this is able to display the effect. And you can customize according to your own preference.

• animationInterval=33; for controlling the animation interval just change the value. e.g. 35.
• followMouse=true; Use true or false.This will indicate that snow will follow the mouse or not.
• this.snowColor='#fff'; You can change the snow color by altering the color code #fff. e.g. #ccc
• .flakeWidth=8; This value will change the flake width. to change the widget just alter value. e.g. 10
• .flakeHeight=8; This value will change the flake Height. to change the height just alter value. e.g. 10
• .excludeMobile=false;If you want to disable the effect on Mobile device then simply make false to true.

I hope you will able to add snow effect in your Blogger Blog effectively. If you have anything to say then you can suggest by leaving a comment below. And don't forget to share in your social media site.
