At the top of the script I have...

Code:

  //Configure below to change URL path to the snow image
  var snowsrc="/index/snow.gif"

further down I use...

Code:

  document.write("<div id=\"dot"+ i +"\" style=\"POSITION: absolute; Z-INDEX: "+ i +"; VISIBILITY: visible; TOP: 15px; LEFT: 15px;\"><a href=\"http://mysite.co.uk\"><img src='"+snowsrc+"' border=\"0\"><\/a><\/div>");
      } else {

When using a full URL you must prefix it with "http://" like Ian stated. If you do not, then it'll be looking for the image at http://www.pinksheep.be/forums/www.pinksheep.be/images/snow.gif

That would be down to the script - have you altered the variables at the top?

I was too impatient, it just took them very long to fall again

What 'disturbs' me is that they start falling in the amount you indicated. Is it possible to have them fall one by one in stead of all 10 (in my case) at the time?
It looks very odd this way, as the page is refreshed very often, so most of the time, you just have a row of flakes falling down
