Great, i like the first one the best.
I’m not sure why, but #2 crashed Firefox (v. 2.0.0.11) every time I loaded it. I haven’t looked closely at the javascript, but I suspect that it’s the culprit. If anyone is thinking of borrowing that code, it’s worth noting.
Great list.. Lots of inspiring designs on this list (as well as comment #1).. design 2 is quite clever with the blur effects. Thanks!
thank you !
Great list of resources. I’m sure its a great help to web developers and designers.
