Flying / Floating boxes with easing and motion blur

The plugin itself is very lightweight, only a few rows of code. There are two major “functions” which make everything alive: the initialization part sets the timer of the JavaScript engine to a specified frame rate; you can change this value by passing the frameRate variable to the plugin at instantiation. In the next step the plugin binds the mouse movement event to the parent object. The naming may be a little misleading, but it’s trying to say to which object the floating box should be bound to. There is another variable I would like to clarify: the stage. Usually the parent and the stage are the same. But if you want your box float in a different “co-ordinate system” other than the parent’s you have the possibility to do so, just provide a new stage. Back to the mouse event. When the event occurs, the code checks the position of the mouse within the parent object (so NOT the absolute coordinates).

Apple-like Retina Effect With jQuery

Apple has long applied a winning strategy in marketing – create well designed products, have a dedicated fan base, and let the hype build up before every product release.

This is also the case with the latest version of their iPhone. But what I found interesting is the term they coined – “Retina display” and the promo image accompanying it.

Inset Border Effect jQuery Plugin

I was browsing through a few Flash templates on ActiveDen when I came across an effect I see very often on Flash website galleries. It’s a very simple but neat effect. The images have a border, but unlike CSS borders, it covers up part of the image. I wanted to use this effect in one of my galleries so I went ahead and experimented a bit and came up with the following jQuery plugin. It basically wraps the images in a div with the same dimension as the image and sets the overflow to hidden. Then it appends another div after the image, which the actual border gets assigned to. All the border properties can be altered by the user. It will work with almost any lightbox (tested with colorbox).

Bit.ly Button - jQuery Plugin for Your Clicky Post

bit.ly -The intelligent URL shortener- offers realtime statistics about the clicks on shortened links and this button takes advantage of that information. This jQuery button gives you a uniform click count button -tall or wide- that people can also use it to retweet your post.

When you use a short link to tweet your post, it may get 100 retweets but in terms of bit.ly stats that could mean 1000 clicks coming from the whole twitter ecosystem which makes another interesting measure of how popular is your post!

jQuery YouTube TubePlayer Plugin

YouTube broke 2 billion views a day just a couple of months back. I have played around with the API for two and a half years in various capacities, but I always stopped at the flash level of the chromeless player. Even though I managed to work through the AS3 implementation, I didn't want to have to go through the pain of designing an interface for a player - I really wanted to play with the API itself.

Poshy Tip - jQuery Plugin for Stylish Tooltips

I almost hear you asking - why another jQuery tooltip plugin? Well, I actually never planned creating this plugin until I reached the final stages of designing this website and decided to add some pretty tooltips. So I started looking for a tooltip plugin that allows easily creating stylish tooltips and also includes the most useful features for such a script. However, I wasn't pleased with the results I found so I ended up writing a completely new plugin and am now making it available for all.
