Amazing CSS3

CSS3 has amazing potential to give your sites that awe and wonder factor. At first glance, CSS3 gave you rounded corners, image borders and shadows. Ok, that’s good news for all those developers that had to use ugly workarounds for every modern browser and IE6. But you then look a little deeper and find the animation ability. Check it out:

OK so a little bit of fun. What about some real practical site usage? Image gallery? Navigation?

You don’t have to rely on Flash or another RIA to produce some cool features to your site. Some of these examples still require JavaScript.

Currently sites using CSS3 can only be viewed correctly in a webkit browser (Chrome or Safari). Here at We Love, we are keeping our eyes on this exciting alternative to RIA being available on other browsers. Until then, here are a couple of the examples that really have the awe factor:
