    // comment the following line
    //$(document).snowfall();

    // add the following line
    $(document).snowfall({image :"https://mywiki.domain.net/images/1/11/Flake.png", minSize: 10, maxSize:32});

You can use the flake image located in extensions/JQuerySnowfall/JQuery-Snowfall/images/flake.png:

  1. import the image in your MediaWiki web site
  2. use the url of the imported image
