In fact, remove yourself entirely from this situation. If someone asked us the answer to a complicated math question...and I blurted out "42!" ...and I am wrong..the next guy...who blurts out "43!" isn't right on account of how I didn't know the answer to the question.
That, is what's known as an argument from ignorance.
Then it is an argument this poster is obviously qualified to make.

You are arguing that the fundamental laws that govern snowflake production were put in place by Allah (or whatever God you believe in, you didn't say). Those are two separate arguments.
The snowflake should satisfy as an example of how complexity CAN arise from simplicity, though.
What is your position on evolution? The age of the universe?
I think evolution is very possibly true, but parts of it are not proven beyond any doubt.
You do realize, I hope, that being very possibly true puts it light years ahead of the cosmic watchmaker where truthiness is concerned.
