24 March 2009. I have begun a rewrite of my rwmCoverFlow script. To begin with I wanted to separate the slanty effect so that it is more easily reusable. Hence this test. The image is bouncing up and down as I change it's HeightOffset, which affects whether it is top, bottom, or in-between aligned against it's y co-ordinate. Run the mouse round the rwmPodNav "click wheel" to swivel the image. This starts life as a normal IMG sat inside a normal A. My rwmSwivelImage class wraps that up, rewrites the DOM a bit and the result is this rather unrealistic looking spinny thing.
