leaves falling on the board By justbuggin2 (Read 1,919 times)

[justbuggin2]

is there a way to get rid of the leaves falling on this site

[terrilee]

OH they r cute , let 'em alone

[justbuggin2]

they are ok but make it hard for me to read if i can turn them off i will

[wheezy]

Unfortunately (for some.. ), it is coded into the page, and it's set to not disappear and to run the full page. So, if you are scrolling whilst reading, the leaf will follow you down.

Clever, yes. Pesky, yes.

Only the person that put the code in can change it back.

Leaves?? I thought it was bugs or butterflies!!!! (I like the cats!)

wait til it snow's....it's cool......buford

Dang guys I just put a little fall leaves in for the occasion. Yes I can change it to falling scooters if I want to and it is a code that is put on the header of proboards that is allowed by them.

But if it is bothering people I'm very sorry and will be glad to remove them, it only takes a few moments.

BRING 'EM BACK !!!!


what other designs do u have?

take a poll for a week
, u can make polls to NOT let people vote twice, right?

Like I said Terrilee I can put anything on there I want, any image, picture, etc. The way these forums are set up is by a system of designed formated codes. As the owner with the athority to build the forum like you want you can add things like the falling leaves, snow etc. In the code you just put the image or picture you want and the system reads it and follows the directions you give it such as image, size, speed, how many etc.

Also everything or even things like the extra smileys box we have here is on a code list by the forum makers here Proboards and you can use any of them out of their libary, build your own codes or use free ones you can find on the net.

Here is the code I used here for the falling leaves indicating fall, I just replaced the snowflake with a leaf;

.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex3/snow.htm" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex3/snow.htm

Here is the actual code I plugged into the header and then removed:

Long ain't it! You can make it do anything you want, slower, faster, more leaves less leaves and again I could even make elephants fall.

There are fun things to use here on the nmenu box if you like, one of my favorites is the Marquee box which allows you to insert a image that will make it move across the screen.

When you click on it the following code brackets will appear and you just insert your image right in the center;





If you want to take a poll and folks want a fall display for a little while or even a winter one later then again it's easy to put on.

Jr it was nice but it made it hard for me to read if it was just on the welcome page then i would not have said anything

[wolfhound]

I kinda liked it myself but it would probably be better to use it on just the welcome page. Bring it back that way
and satisfy every body.

[wheezy]

Personally, I don't mind them, but you could change

var hidesnowtime = 0;

from "0" to 10 or 15 seconds, whatever the amount of time would be for the snow to fall down the screen once, then disappear.

[terrilee]

i loved the leaves
anything would be cool really


JUST i guess we have to worry about the OLD people
{ older than me}
who cant see very well and have trouble reading

NAW use 'em leafs, snow, rain, etc etc etc

sets the forum apart, i think

[justbuggin2]

Terrilee i am not as old as you but my eye sight is so bad that i have to wear my glasses when i sleep to see my dreams

[wolfhound]

WHO YOU CALLIN OLD?? 8^)
