Teaching myself to use parallax by creating a few fun animations (I'll eventually throw them up on a playground site I'll eventually create. (Big ambitions, never enough time). Using Ryan Clark's amazing Liberator font here, and much inspired by this brilliant shot http://dribbble.com/shots/173550-Prototype-mailer. Text not yet resolved.
@Joshua - that's a really nice subtle effect. Mine is going to be the in-your-face-action-packed-stupid-crazy-impracttical variety (at least that's what I'm aiming for).
@stu - you just broke my brain, but that's a good thing. I'll look at simplebits as you suggested. Right now it's multiple divs - though css3 multiple bgs is something that really, really excites me.
I'll post links this and the other one I'm working on when they're done - rather than waiting to build the home for them first. Ever since I saw this amazing thing: http://bit.ly/4LfO8m I started dreaming about potential ways to subvert the two-dimensions of web design. I'm not a strong enough developer to do what I dream of, but aim aiming to get there.
