Sexy Link Transformations with CSS
I was recently visiting MooTools Developer Christoph Pojer’s website and noticed a sexy link hover effect: when you hover the link, the the link animates and tilts to the left or the right. To enhance the effect, the background color of the link is changed. I scoped out his JavaScript file to see how he created the effect but there were no link effects in it — the effects were being created with just CSS!
.sexy-links a {
display: inline-block;
padding: 4px;
outline: 0;
color: #3a599d;
-webkit-transition-duration: 0.25s;
-moz-transition-duration: 0.25s;
-o-transition-duration: 0.25s;
transition-duration: 0.25s;
-webkit-transition-property: -webkit-transform;
-moz-transition-property: -moz-transform;
-o-transition-property: -o-transform;
transition-property: transform;
-webkit-transform: scale(1) rotate(0);
-moz-transform: scale(1) rotate(0);
-o-transform: scale(1) rotate(0);
transform: scale(1) rotate(0);
}
.sexy-links a:hover {
background: #3a599d;
text-decoration: none;
color: #fff;
-webkit-border-radius: 4px;
-moz-border-radius: 4px;
-o-border-radius: 4px;
border-radius: 4px;
-webkit-transform: scale(1.05) rotate(-1deg);
-moz-transform: scale(1.05) rotate(-1deg);
-o-transform: scale(1.05) rotate(-1deg);
transform: scale(1.05) rotate(-1deg);
}
.sexy-links a:nth-child(2n):hover {
-webkit-transform: scale(1.05) rotate(1deg);
-moz-transform: scale(1.05) rotate(1deg);
-o-transform: scale(1.05) rotate(1deg);
transform: scale(1.05) rotate(1deg);
}
