I put together a quick Christmas card using Papervision 3D and some code based off the snow tutorial - you can see it ...

I used a BitmapDataZone as a DeathZone so that the snow piles up as it hits the foreground image which makes quite a cool (although not at all realistic) effect...

I'm currently working on another more impressive little experiment with Flint - I'll let you know when it's done :)]]>

I used BitmapDataZone like this but the particles disapears when they fall in the zone, I don't know how to keep the snow on the image :

emitter.addAction( new Move() );
emitter.addAction( new DeathZone ( new BitmapDataZone( bitmapData, 507, 314 ), false ) );
emitter.addAction( new DeathZone( new RectangleZone( -10, -10, 1030, 780 ), true ) );
emitter.addAction( new RandomDrift( 20, 20 ) );


ps : sorry if my english isn't good ^^']]>
