Module that casts photorealistic shadows
- hyborg787 13y agoPerfect for making me click the back button when your landing page performs abysmally slow.
- jasallen 13y agoWell I didn't notice any performance issues, but based on the other comment I checked out perfmon, and yeah, its pegging a core. Maybe less sprites on the demo page?
- jlgreco 13y agoIt's laggy as hell for me on a i5-3427U. Not a beefy machine, but unless your target audience is gamers with tricked out PCs...
- pplante 13y agoits incredibly slow on my mbpr with chrome 27.

- misnome 13y ago"Photorealistic" is a big, big stretch here. Why is the shadow the colour of the object that is shadowing it? Why doesn't the softness of the shadow relate to the distance to the light source? Why don't adjacent objects affect each other shadow colours? Also, the inset shadow doesn't seem to work - the cursor can hover directly over shadow area. It mostly seems to be a css shape-repeater to give a 'shadow-like' visual appearance in a dynamic direction. I mean, I'm not trying to put down the writers js/css skills, but when I read "Photorealistic shadows", I think of something like LuxRender. So, probably, just marketing skills.
- atjoslin 13y agoThis is a cool idea :-) You should make a demo with just one object though, so it doesn't lag so much.
- nkwiatek 13y agoI bet if you `s/box-shadow/text-shadow/` a lot more people will find ways to use it.
