Description

:snowing: Just in time for Christmas. :giggle:

Because of the large amount of white, this emoticon looks best on a dark background.


Oh boy... This took a little longer than I was expecting, but still, given that Baseball Bat Ninja, my first emoticon, of similar complexity, took 2 weeks to make, I've sped up a great deal.

Moving on to the technical details of this: the basic animation of the snow fall is 6 frames long, and loops throughout the scene. Because the snowfall needs to be constant, there are many frames to this, and given that animation over transparency doesn't compress well, this emote falls just short of 30KB.
