Data URI Sprites Generator – Spritebaker Posted: 13 Sep 2010 10:04 AM PDT Data URIs, which is a way of using data in-line in web pages, is a great method for minimizing HTTP requests and speeding up websites. The common usage is simply encoding data (mostly background-images) in Base 64 and including it to the stylesheets. Spritebaker is a free web application which automates this process for you. Just mention the URL of the CSS file, it will search for the background-images + fonts (non-local ones) and create a new stylesheet with these stuff converted to Data URIs. However, don't forget that Data URIs usage isn't perfect yet like the CSS file will grow (you must turn on gzip-compression) or <IE8 browsers will be incompatible. It'll be a good idea to check the suggestions by Spritebaker. Special Downloads: Advertisements: Related posts |
A Compact jQuery Image Slider – Orbit Posted: 13 Sep 2010 01:07 AM PDT Orbit is a lightweight (2.8kb compressed) jQuery plugin for displaying multiple images in a limited space. The HTML markup is pretty clean, just an element that wraps multiple images where the captions are generated from the Images can be browsed using the prev-next buttons which appear on hover and there is an optional timer letting the user know when the next image will be displayed. This easy-to-use plugin has several options like the animation type, animation speed, enable/disable previous-next buttons, captions, timer and more.
