jquery image cross fade
Posted on August 16th, 2009 No commentsI just spent an hour trying to figure out how to make an image cross-fade into another image using the amazing JQuery library.
First I read this post, and then continued on to part two.
These tutorials are close, but the code was a bit confusing at first, and it didn’t seem that simple to integrate into my site.
Then I found the motherlode:
This single JQuery CrossSlide plug-in is easy to use instantly. It lets you perform slide-in and slide-out transitions with or without transparency fading in between multiple images.
It even emulates the popular Ken Burns effect that is built into iMovie.
