Design your way

Monday, April 7, 2014

For quite a while, web designers concentrated their efforts above the fold fearing that visitors wouldn’t bother scrolling down the page to read their content.

However, web designers and developers have slowly begun to embrace the scroll and have begun using it as a way to engage and impress their users using various effects such as background reveals, animations and other interesting effects.

The use of interesting scroll effects has changed how we view web design and offered true engagement for the users. More and more designers are incorporating the use of scroll effects by using JavaScript and other elements to truly bring a page to life.

Static web pages are slowly becoming a thing of the past as more and more developers embrace the scroll and push the envelope to create a truly meaningful user experience on each and every page.

Animation has increased its influence in design over the last few years. Beginning with basic effects, designers have enhanced the abilities of animations and created highly innovative effects that impress visitors from all over the web.

Much of this is due to the advancement in web technologies over the years and the desire of web designers to truly “wow” their visitors. Every day, the web is becoming a much more dynamic and interesting place to be for everyone.

We have gathered an extensive collection of websites that truly embrace scrolling and use it in very innovative ways using combinations of CSS animations and JavaScript.

These sites use scrolling to not only move the page but also to change page elements to greatly enhance the user experience. We hope these sites will inspire you and give you ideas so you can create scroll based websites that truly engage your visitors.
