This jQuery plugin can display images with a cascading waterfall effect. It can be positioned either horizontally or vertically, and custom events can fired when an image rotates into the center or is clicked. The appearance of the carousel is very customizable.

How to use this plugin

Download the plugin ZIP package from the link below. For this plugin to work, you will need to include the latest version of jQuery on your webpage BEFORE including this script. This plugin currently works with jQuery verson 1.4, and will most likely work with any further releases. It was originally developed using version 1.3, but will no longer work with that version.

Head Code

<script type="text/javascript" src="js/jquery-1.4.1.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/jquery.waterwheelCarousel.js"></script>

a smidgen of CSS

#waterwheelCarousel {
	height:230px;
}
#waterwheelCarousel > img {
	display:none;
}

The basic Carousel

<div id="waterwheelCarousel">
	<img src="image1.jpg" alt="Test Image 1">
	<img src="image1.jpg" alt="Test Image 2">
	<img src="image1.jpg" alt="Test Image 3">
	<img src="image1.jpg" alt="Test Image 4">
	<img src="image1.jpg" alt="Test Image 5">
</div>

Finally: some control script

<script type="text/javascript">
    $("#waterwheelCarousel").waterwheelCarousel("horizontal",{
    // include options like this:
    // (use quotes only for string values, and no trailing comma after last option)
    // option: value,
    // option: value
    });
</script>

Found a tutorial about image loading using Jquery written by Remy Sharp while trying to create the same function for company i am working at. Remy has publish the core script and here i will modify it to make it work for multiple images, and load in sequencing order.

Multiple Image Loading

First we create an HTML page which has list element with class “loading” which we’re going to define later in the CSS, the amount of the list element depend on how many images we need to put here, in this example i have 3 images.
Follow up the comments from my previous post about animate loading image with jquery which asking about how to populate images from the DOM instead of declare the image within the javascript codes manualy, so i made a little changes into the code since it seems to be easier for you all to adopt this into your website.

<ul id="container">

  <li><img src="your_image_url.jpg"></li>
  <li><img src="your_image_url.jpg"></li>
  <li><img src="your_image_url.jpg"></li>
</ul>

The css

ul li {
	width:112px;
    height:112px;
    list-style:none;
}
ul li.loading {
	background: url(spinner.gif) no-repeat center center;

	position:absolute;
    top:0px;
    left:0px;
    background:red;
    padding:10px 15px;
    color:white;
}

The Javascript

$(function () {
	//@ my flicker link
	var flickr_set = 'http://www.flickr.com/photos/87187920@N00/';
	//@ id of div where the loading informations visible
	var _loadDivId = 'loadnote';

  The scripty2 effects framework provides for time-based transformations of DOM elements and arbitrary JavaScript objects. This is at the core of scripty2 and presents a refinement of the visual effects framework of script.aculo.us 1.

• scripty2 ui

This is one of my favorite jQuery plugins, it has far reaching features. It’s ease of use and implementation means even novices can plot markers on Google Maps with absolute simplistic ease.

How it works

         <script>
           gmap = new GMap2(document.getElementById('map'));
           gmap.setCenter(new GLatLng(0, 0), 13);
           $('#brisbane').gmaplist(gmap);
         </script>

The list element to propgate the markers

<div id="map" style="display:none"></div>
         <ul id="brisbane">
           <li>Redcliffe, QLD</li>
           <li>Cornubia, QLD</li>
           <li>Birkdale, QLD</li>
           <li>Wellington Point, QLD</li>
           <li>Burpengary, QLD</li>
           <li>Jimboomba, QLD</li>
         </ul>
       </div>

Options

The plugin accepts an options object. The following variables are accepted:

• delay: The lookup delay in milliseconds.
  Geocoding lookups need to be throttled to prevent 602 errors. The default value of 100ms is typically good enough.
• loadingGraphic: Path to a loading graphic
  The map is not displayed until all geocoding has been performed. This option is the path to a loading graphic
• debug: Logs some debugging info to the console
  Currently logs each point result from the Google gatLatLng() hook

Timeago is a jQuery plugin that makes it easy to support automatically updating fuzzy timestamps (e.g. “4 minutes ago” or “about 1 day ago”).

The timeAGO jQuery plugin

Timeago was originally built for use with Yarp.com to timestamp comments.

• Avoid timestamps dated “1 minute ago” even though the page was opened 10 minutes ago; timeago refreshes automatically.
• You can take full advantage of page caching in your web applications, because the timestamps aren’t calculated on the server.
• You get to use microformats like the cool kids.

• Let’s see it working
