kick ass drop shadows and favorites JS code

Drop shadows that scroll over your content, fixed onto the browser window!

I’ve seen this before, but now it’s explained. It’s a little something called: Scrolling Drop Shadows and it’s kick-ass!! Of course, it doesn’t work in IE because it uses PNGs. But who cares? :lol:

I want to try it with an image, just to see if it works; like a tuft of grass on the bottom of the browser’s inner window. Can you imagine?!

Also: My Favorite JavaScript for Designers is a collection of quick JS snippets of code that are extremely useful. In the comments for that entry I found a link to how to: Create a Pull Quote with Javascript (and CSS).

    The tuft of grass is actually a much neater application. It adds another dimension, whereas shadows just create depth (deep, ain’t it? :P ). Of course, since my whole blog is under CC, you may implement your own tactics. But say so when you do use my code. I like to see the applications over the whole web :)

    Yeah, I wanna try it on a test page; sorta like a ‘thinking-out-loud’ test u know? But I’d never steal code and claim it as my own. I leave or add those ‘this code created by such-and-such’ comments in. Any source code I get off the web, I usually test/edit first before I use officialy use it.

    Please don’t think I’d steal code. I shiver at the thought.

    Oop! That reminds me to add the sIFR technique to my colophon. It’s been updated so I’ll post an entry on that soon-ish. :wink:
