jQuery simple image gallery

Another gallery/slideshow example with jQuery, this time we will load image after user selects one of the controls(next/prev).

Example also uses corner jQuery plugin to round image corners.

Easing preloader as3

Here is the example of easing, reusable preloader that I am using in some of my projects.
The general idea is to tween the loader bar to the next point instead of just jumping to it.
The easiest way to achieve that effect is using one of the tweening libraries. Continue reading ‘Easing preloader as3′
