Easy CSS3 Slot Machine Navigation

Want to see the DEMO first? Head over to my playground area. I’ve been really playing around with using the two new CSS3 properites -transitions and transforms- in my projects lately. This little, quick tip only uses transitions and one image. Now, of course the number of images used will vary depending on what you decide to use this for. I included “Navigation” in the title of this post, because this method would be perfect for your navigation.

Runaway Nightmare! A Halloween Mix

Runaway Nightmare! A Halloween Mix

As I do every year, I’ve re-uploaded my Runaway Nightmare Halloween mix that I made a few years ago. This time though, I decided to code up a quick page dedicated to it.

As I tell my clients, even though it won’t look that pretty, we can still deliver the message and product to your users on Internet Explorer. The mix itself has all kinds...

Some say that it really doesn’t create sales. A customer might come to your page and “Like” it, and then move on without buying or signing up for your product. Well, yeah that is going to happen, but why miss out on the possible sales it actually could bring you? What if one of their Facebook friends sees that they “liked” your website on their Facebook wall, and then decides to come visit your site and buy your product. Consider this: According to the 2011 Social Commerce Study from Shop.org, purchase behavior fueled by social media is...
