Gorgeous "Curling Page" JQuery Plugin
- chrisbroadfoot 18y agoOne question: Why?
- nihilocrat 18y agoWell, at least the creator seems to understand the gimmickyness of the effect: But please, use it wisely. If it starts popping up everywhere and becomes “that annoying javascript thing”, I'll be very upset.
- invisible 18y agoProbably because he was sick of using flash to make something "flashy" that catches the user's attention. But yes, use this sparingly.
- sammyo 18y agoBecause some people deeply lust after the page turn effect. No accounting for taste...
- grouchyOldGuy 18y agoHave you thought about modifying it so that it's not just eye candy, but can also be used for navigation (like proceeding to the page uncovered behind the curl)?
- wenbert 18y agoaside from that, it would be also nice to put some real content behind the fold (EG: a preview for the next page or something).
- jbrun 18y agoIt would be cool if this could be used to mark important pages on a site by individual users. Sort of like a bookmark, but more user-friendly. Users could quickly see a list of pages they have dog-eared and go back to them.
- jonursenbach 18y agoIt would be "gorgeous" if it was animated, but as it is it's kind of kitschy. Doubt I'll be using this in any of my projects.
- elliottkember 18y agoTry clicking the "demo page" link - it can be animated :)
- Spyckie 18y agoDoing this kind of thing is good publicity for his blog. I won't use this, but I would think about modifying it to my own tastes.
- zupatol 18y agoHe does not bother mentioning that it does not work with internet explorer. It would be nice if ie already was that irrelevant.
- elliottkember 18y agoThanks - fixed. It now works with IE7. IE6 is a lost cause.
- numair 18y agoCongratulations Elliott, you've invented a new ad product.
- elliottkember 18y agoI certainly hope not :|
