Sorry to be off-topic lol, but you just made me unhappy, I live in South East England, and last winter we only had one snow day, so when it does snow for you, be shure to send some along to me tongue.gif

California, San Fran, South Bay.. snowed once in 1978. We do get a light dusting on the Santa Cruz mountains that rise just beyond my backyard. Also 4 hours to Tahoe so skiing/snowboarding on the weekend is very do-able...even a mid week ski to beat the crowds is common. Sort of the best of both here. 30 minute drive over the Santa Cruz Mts for some surfing or watch some of the best take on Mavericks. Wouldn't want to deal with snow every day all winter. Oh wow, way off topic meander there..sorry about that.

It usually starts around late October... and then lasts till early April. I live in a snow belt where lake effect snows come off of Lake Eire in the US. We avg about 120-140 inches a year. Not bad... but definitely not the most snow like some other people get.

Here are several snow/winter .dreams available.

These are for use with DeskScapes. smile.gif

I'm using Winter Snow

I think it's the best one available at the moment, you can set a custom background behind the snow.

sorry about th late reply, you're so lucky even to have that amount, here in south east england these days you're lucky to get an inch all winter sad.gif

October to April for snow... OMG i'd give anything for that! I heard the great lakes have quite a huge influence on the weather systems around them. I want some snow, i fel like i have been starved of it lol.

Ave's Desktop Effects has a snow one that doesn't require you to pay, and isn't a video. (I hate the video dreams. They gobble up waaayyy too much CPU time.) It's a shame I haven't see people develop for it -- It actually has had an SDK out for a while now, whereas DeskScapes is still pretty much limited to those video ones.

You've got beaches and hot chicks, and you want cold snowy weather that makes getting to/from work a pain in the ass and 1000x more dangerous? /confused

Yeah, same around here too. We usually don't get that much snow, but we get several big storms a year. We actually got snow last season in May blink.gif don't ask me how.

And, according to the farmer's almanac this year is going to be a cold winter. I'm looking forward to a longer snowboarding season already. cool.gif

I know this is off topic also, but i have been looking at the seasonal forecasts for winter 08/09 and they're saying it will probably be the winter to remember, they are saying it could get colder than normal for the states and Europe, i just hope we get plenty of snow biggrin.gif

Where are you looking for that info?
Mr Spoon
I hope so to be honest!
Although I'm not looking forward to the heating bill at the end of the winter, I hope everything is all dandy and snowy for my photos.

If its snowing wouldnt you rather have your dreamscene as something warm and hot?
Like a beach or something tongue.gif
