This is a pretty cool, quick puzzle. I was able to reverse the snow by just changing a handful of characters (I assume this is the most common solution). Not going to try tackling the advanced part though.

I did see a really cool solution from a buddy on IRC that does some string manipulation...

Easy to solve with CSS, but missing the point I guess.

From the code:

// Editing the css on this line is a cheap and dirty way to 'solve' the problem without really thining about it

But sometimes the best way to do something is to do nothing:

/* Turning your world upside down */ #world{-webkit-transform: ScaleY(-1);}

LOL!

The css answer is too simple. The real answer is equally as simple but requires a basic understanding of what is going on.

This reminds me of my physics days at the City College of NY! Awesome puzzle and a cool way to learn about cellular automata...

Great puzzle, easy workaround is to change top, to bottom in generated div-s, but it is much more fun, to find proper solution

Does not seem to work in Firefox but works in Chrome. Looks like "border-radius" is not recognized in the CSS.

Looks okay in my Firefox.
