Add a new transparent layer to your image. Fill it with RGB Noise. Invert this layer, otherwise the snow is black.
Then, several times, duplicate this layer and offset it down by a few pixels. For a smooth animation, have 30 layers, and change a little the amount of offset down, adding even a small horizontal offset. Finally, duplicate the background layer as many times as you have snow layers, and merge the duplicate backgrounds each with a snow layer. Your animation is finished! Olivier Lecarme
