A collection of CSS3 powered hover effects to be applied to call to actions, buttons, logos, featured images and so on. Easily apply to your own elements, modify or just use for inspiration. Available in CSS and SASS.

One of the more popular and simple effects I've featured on this blog over the past year has been linking nudging. I've created this effect with three flavors of JavaScript: MooTools, jQuery, and even the Dojo Toolkit. Luckily CSS3 (almost) allows us to ditch JavaScript entirely to create the link nudge effect!

In recent years jQuery has become the easiest and best supported way to implement simple animations online. JavaScript is exceptionally good at what it does and this article is in no way an argument against it.

However, CSS3 offers a glimpse into a possible future where basic animations are performed with straight CSS completely independent of scripting. Today we’ll take a look at how to use CSS3 to create a fun and unique navigation menu that uses @font-face, transforms and transitions.
