Rails spinoffs - Jan 2007 - I'm looking for some fancy javascript effect I saw somewhere

Hi there

I''m looking for something, and I''m real desperate. A couple a
weeks ago
I found a script that made it possible to let a a-element (like
a:hover) look like this ala Big Spaceship (bigspaceship.com) and
GEORIEW (georgiew.de). -> the topmenu effect

I don''t know how to call this effect, so I can''t find it (it
was a
javascript). I forgot to save it on my del.icio.us, wich is very stupid
of me.

Anyone recognize it, or know how to call this effect? And better, know
where to find it?

Thanks so much

I know it is, my friend!

But there is a javascript solution, so that''s why I''m asking.

Cheers

The two examples you provided are actually different, although  
minutely so.

The first does a text transform, simulating a rotation around the  
horizontal axis.  You''d need to use images for this instead of text,  
and model the 3-D transform similar to how other js image rotators  
do.  (If you plan on doing it yourself, you''d better be pretty  
comfortable w/ linear algebra.)

The second example could be emulated by combining a SlideDown effect  
in parallel with some other custom effect.  Perhaps Effect.Morph  
would help you here.

YMMV. Happy coding!
