Demo doesn't work for me.

Ubuntu, Version 44.0.2403.157 (64-bit)

which browser are you using?

Breaks for me on Chrome 45.0.2454.85 on Ubuntu as well. Runs fine on Firefox.

hmm.. it's strange, it works in Chrome 45 on Mac and on Windows 10, 8, 7 (even windows xp) Unfortunately I can not test it on Ubuntu but at this point I doubt the problem is the OS. Sure you don't have any Chrome extension installed that could block the execution of the script? Thanks for your feedback anyway I will test it on Ubuntu asap

Is Parallax still used somewhere else than ThemeForest Templates?
gianlucaguarini
does twitter.com count also as ThemeForest theme? https://twitter.com/gianlucaguarini

No, but as one of those uncountable amount of sites that implemented it when it was chic and sexy.

(This was btw. a real question, and I didn't want to smaller your work. The script itself looks nice and works like a charm here, no doubt about that!)

I kind of agree, but since there will be clients requiring this feature we can not do a lot! I have tried my best to get a script enough flexible that will help me (and I hope other devs) wasting hours to configure a smooth parallax site

I never realized how buggy Twitter is in Safari 9. Twitching and jerking everywhere.

I don't get how this is considered good design. It certainly does not add to the UX, not for me anyway.

But who am I to tell, I'm just a user, not a designer.

whatever this means...

This means that, as user, OP doesn't consider his opinion on the subject qualified enough, despite being fluent in the use of web browsers, and being a potential target for sites implementing this effect.
