WOW Slider : jQuery Image Slider & Carousel. Creating awesome CSS3 animations. August 27th, 2010 Yarrrr!! Meet Captain Track, the awesome animated CSS3 pirate! First, grab a WebKit-based browser, like Safari (preferably, because it supports hardware-acceleration!) Or Google Chrome and head over to timebemoney.com and say “yarrrr!” To Captain Track! Note that on the iPad and iPhone, these animations run with a full, super-smooth 60 frames per second, because of all the hardware-accelerated glory in Mobile Safari.

The best thing is that all this glory will eventually come to all browsers, so don’t get left behind and start using this awesomeness now. Here’s the whole animation dissected: Arm & Map The arm & map image is a transparent 24-bit PNG (note the translucent brownish shadow). This image is absolutely positioned, and rotated around a point on the left border of the image, a bit down from the center, so it appears that the arm is rotated around the elbow of Captain Track. The animation itself is defined through the use of the @-webkit-keyframes keyword. Clock handles. Quickly Create CSS 3 Animations with ‘Ceasar’ CSS 3 has some awesome new animation capabilities for web developers — rotating objects, fading them in and out and more — but writing the code is a bit more complicated than most CSS rules.

To make your animating job a bit easier, developer Matthew Lein put together Ceaser, a handy code generator that outputs CSS snippets for animations. Ceaser will look familiar to anyone who’s ever used Robert Penner’s easing equation in Flash (and later JQuery) since it includes approximations of most of Penner’s equations. To use Ceaser, just pick a preset, set a time for the transition (the default is 500 milliseconds) and then pick a property to apply it to — width, height, opacity, etc. You can also create your own easing curve using the drag-and-drop graph tools. Once you’ve got everything working the way you’d like, just paste the CSS output into your stylesheet and you’re done. CSS 3 transitions work in any modern browser.
