hey everyone! This site is made because many pple have been asking me for the html code for the falling stars...so here it is and some basic html suff. To the left are the sites i have used and found this informating in.... :
the code for falling stars:
demo: look at the page
I got this code from Lissa explains it all

How to put this on your web page:
First, you need to save this image to your computer:

save it as star and make it a "gif" type picture
Second, copy this code into your webpage. Put the code right after the <body> tag.
Third, watch the star fall!
