You need to call scripts/snow.js in the <head> tags of HTML pages (I think)

On all the pages you want snark snow, you need to go into the file (they'll be PHP files) find where the HTML is generated, look for an area like this:
<html>
<head>
<title>The Snarkpit</title>
</head>
before that "</head>", which is the ending of the head area, you need to put in this line of code:
<script language="JavaScript" src="scripts/snow.js"></script>
Of course, since it's PHP, you can't just insert the code, it needs to be outputted properly, make sure you use the string output properly, otherwise the code it self wont get written to file correctly and it wont execute it when someone loads the page.
Just try, you'll get it.
Please only do it on the front page (index.php) ... if it's everywhere, like it was, I will kill you ... unless there's an option to turn it off again ... which, by the looks of it doesn't look there will be.

No if it's only done for the front page and nowhere else. Doesn't anyone remember how much of a hassle it was to read the forums or questions with those damn things in the way?
Frontpage is evil, don't ever mention it again.

What about Dreamweaver?
The snarks on every page only distract from the first 3-4 posts
at least in FF... and as I recall, I could be completely wrong.
Also, I agree with everything that's been said so far here, keep up the good work gentlemen.
@Cass: How's work on the oil rig? yarrr.

Dreamweaver is an abomination to human kind, but for different reasons.
Blame it on Microsoft, God does.

I still use Dreamweaver actually. Frontpage is even more bad, but both are responsible for plenty of webpage abominations ![<img src=]()
