Could we please have the snow that used to be on hedgewars.org every Christmas? It doesn't feel christmasy enough and I have to use the kwin snow plugin!

I'd just be happy if the halloween appearance was dropped. The snow was... ok... but almost any way of rendering snow on a web page does result in CPU load unless the page is blank. There are ways to reduce the impact (fewer flakes, slower animations, gif vs text, font-smooth) but there's still a pretty significant impact on any reasonably complex web page.

Could we maybe just have an 'opt in' button for snow then?

I'd rather not, it really slowed down my browser.

I would like to have the snow, I've never seen it before. (Beacause I joined around spring 2010.) Maybe we could at least have a Christmasy background.

Background change would be nice, indeed. Happy birthday, Star and Moon.

I for one, support snow-free websites! It's enough if looking out of the window makes me feel cold! Big Grin
