Rain Effect

Post by mcrossley »

OK, who fancies adding this to their web site background?

http://maroslaw.github.io/rainyday.js/

Trigger it with either rain rate, or time of last bucket tip. Use the average wind to set the 'angle'.

I would do it but I don't have the time!

Looks interesting. I will add this to my long list of things to do and look at and come back when I have had a go!

Would anyone know where to start creating a dynamic background?

i.e One that changes depending if it's night, day, frosty, rainy - for example?

The basis is that you would need a small library of background images and a script chooses which one to insert into the template depending on the current conditions.

Could that be done?
