Today we’d like to share a simple page layout concept with you. The theme of the page is a developer/designer portfolio where we add a special effect for revealing the “other” quality of the designer. When you open the demo, you’ll notice a kind of “glitch” effect on some words and also on the portrait. The glitch reveals the “coder side”. When clicking on the “coder” switch in the lower left corner, the image will be taken apart and animated with little rectangles, revealing another image behind. At this point everything will switch to the developer (or coder) view.
Best jQuery Animation Plugins & Tutorials with Demo
Grid Loading Animations with JavaScript & CSS
Today we’d like to share a set of simple, inspirational loading animations for grid items with you. The idea is to show some image grid items with a (subtle) animation after loading has finished. For the demo we have three slightly different grid layouts with different gutters and column numbers.
Water Ripple effect jQuery plugin
I was always fascinated by the “water ripple effect” and so it was time to deal with it. The result is a small jQuery plugin, which you can easily integrate into your projects. As with my last jQuery plugins, you can use the “water ripple effect” with, or without jQuery. As a zip and minifiert is this plugin only 2KB large.
Stack Motion Hover Effects with CSS & JavaScript
Today we’d like to share some tiny hover effect ideas with you. The concept stems from the hover effect seen on Merci-Michel which has a really nice feel to it because of its fluidity. The idea is to show a stack behind the hovered thumbnail that has the same main color as the image and then animate the elements in a swift motion. We are using the JavaScript library anime.js for the animations.
First Person Sunglasses with CSS & JavaScript
Today we’d like to share a fun little experiment with you: a geeky “try-on” sunglasses effect. It’s not a “try-on” in the classical sense for previewing how the sunglasses might look on a person, but instead how the view looks like when putting on some sunglasses and looking through them. For that we use a simple overlay effect and some animations to mimic the movement you do when you try on glasses from the first person perspective.
