Add Different Color Falling Snow Flakes To Blogger

A comment on the post Christmas Snow Fall Effect For Blogger by ‘ம.தி.சுதா‘ asked “how to change the snow color because my template background color is a white” so i got to work to see if i could make the snow effect with different colors. The result is awesome and i have a new code that will allow you to add any color snow fall to your blog. When you add this code you can simply add the color you would like and that’s it. So lets look at the live demo then add colored snow fall to your blog.
