Fun color change on rollover.

[spatulasandsolder]

Cursor turns into pause button on rollover of the image (which autoplays as an animation.

Thumbnails have nice animation on rollover.

Video autoplays with information in front of it. If the user doesn't move the mouse, the information fades away. Video pauses on scroll or click.

A nice trick. It feels like the colors of the layer cake change with scroll but the color is actually controlled by rollover.

Type scrolling over silent short videos. The type needs to be big and the video has to be dark enough so you can still read the type.

Sprout from HP. Visual navigation options with rollover.

Society changes when we change what we’re embarrassed about. In just fifty years, we’ve made it shameful to be publicly racist. In just ten years, someone who professes to not know how to use the internet is seen as a fool. The question, then, is how long before we will be ashamed at being uninformed, at spouting pseudoscience, at believing thin propaganda? How long before it’s unacceptable to take something at face value? How long before you can do your job without understanding the state of the art?

Gay men like Nick Wiseman are endangering the institution of marriage in this country by breaking the hearts of men who have done nothing but love them with their entire souls just so they can run off with some muscle-bound slut.

This is Pipo Magneto. He is a 9 year old robot who spends most of his time daydreaming. His body is made up of magnets allowing him to transform into different shapes. He loves it because he can turn into a staircase and reach into the candy cabinet without anyone noticing. Sometimes — when it’s safe to do so — he sneaks into the forbidden attic and peaks out the window to see other planets.
