Is there a way to disable snow now so it won't happen next year?

    Hello.

    I have not had the snow problem on my free wp blog till now (though have had it on blogs I visit/subscribe to), but now I have a paid wp blog, and it's my understanding that next year, come December, it will start snowing until I opt out.

    I read this thread about disabling it: http://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/let-it-snow-widget-removal?replies=3

    And others of its ilk.

    However, when I look at Settings, I don't see anything about "Let It Snow," so I'm wondering if it only shows up in December? I would really like to be able to prevent this on my own blog and also tell other people how to opt out on their blogs. I wrote this post about why it's so important to me: http://aftergadget.wordpress.com/2013/01/23/waspish-wednesday-how-autoplays-let-it-snow-disable-visitors-to-your-website/

    Thanks for any help!

    The blog I need help with is sharonwachsler.com.

    It only shows up in December, and by default it's off, so if you don't want to enable it, just don't do anything.

    Ah. I think the problem is that I'm posting at wp.com and should be posting at wp.org. I've heard from friends who have self-hosted WP blogs that it just starts up on its own, that they don't enable it. I'll try there. Thanks.

    You're welcome and good luck. I didn't notice it on my WP.org blog, but then I wasn't really paying attention.
