Two years ago, we have built a Javascript Progress Bar. Now, would you like a Pure CSS Progress Bar which requires one image for background stripes only? With simple Javascript for animation, it turned into a really simple and slick progress bar which you can use it anywhere on your website.
Pure CSS Progress Bar is best viewed in a Webkit based browser, Chrome is good, also Safari. Opera 10.62 looks quite good. Firefox and IE 9 kind of work (no animations). IE 8, 7 and 6 do not support rounding, shadows or animation.
Requirements: Webkit based browsers

Web Typography is exploding all over the web. In many instances we would need to style individual letters. We need a system to keep our markup maintainable. Something agile enough that a text change wouldn’t ruin us.
The solution was to call upon the power of Javascript to insert some easy to remember span tags. Here we have Lettering.JS which is a lightweight, easy to use jQuery plugin for radical Web Typography.

Full Page Image Gallery with jQuery shows us how to create a stunning full page gallery with scrollable thumbnails and a scrollable full screen preview. The idea is to have a thumbnails bar at the bottom of the page that scrolls automatically when the user moves the mouse.
When a thumbnail is clicked, it moves to the center of the page and the full screen image is loaded in the background. Now the user can move up and down and the image will get scrolled automatically, giving him the opportunity to see all of the image.
Requirements: jQuery Framework

We often work with clients that maintain accounts with Twitter, Flickr, Youtube and other services in addition to their website. Often they will want to pull in data from one of their accounts to their website.
With Flickr, this is pretty easy because they make a simple API available. Having worked with it a few times, HiFi decided to make it even easier to pull photos from a public feed. jFlickrFeed works by pulling a JSON feed from Flickr and applying the data it gets back to a template. You can also look at Flickrshow, which is a simple Javascript slideshow for Flickr.
