the 90s are back, baby! the demo page and the animations casually remind me of animated gifs back in the day. just a bit more updated.
Gotta give credit where it's due; CSS transform effects kick some serious butt!
How can this be at the top of HN?
People click a little triangle to the left of the caption and then it goes all the way to the top.
It is a rad display of some of the features of css transforms that not everyone is aware of, or at least not aware of the extent in which they can be used.

It's interesting, so, of course it's at the top.

If you could gifify an image, this would be it. Pretty cool, I wonder if this could add presentational value to social media.
Looks like this could easily be extended into creating UI widgets (for example left / right arrows could rotate it by X degrees).

That's pretty awesome, it opens up some new video game-esque possibilities for web design

I guess the internet is getting old enough for fashion to start repeating itself.
With the transparency effect and multiple images overlapping as they rotate, I wonder if this could be used to create a sort of secure QR code. Maybe a new patent is in order.
What kind of security is a QR code lacking that this could add?
You are absolutely insane. Never settle!
The sample images look very PaRappa the Rapper with this effect.
