CVI
instant.js 2.4 allows you to add an instant picture effect (including tilt) to images on your webpages (alternatively: slided.js or filmed.js).

It works in all the major browsers - Mozilla Firefox 1.5+, Opera 9+, Safari and IE6+. On older browsers, it'll degrade and your visitors won't notice a thing.

Demonstration

Shows some of the things instant.js does.

First image with class = "instant itiltleft icolorFFFCE9 ishadow40 historical", next image with class = "instant nocorner itxtalt" and next two images with class = "instant itxtalt". All other images with class = "instant" only...

Setting Up

Download instant.js and include it into your webpage.

// only if you want to use the annotation feature...
<script type="text/javascript" src="cvi_text_lib.js"></script>
// ...else this one only...
<script type="text/javascript" src="instant.js"></script>

Using It

To get the instant picture effect just add a class="instant" to the image (minimum dimension: 64x64).

Classes

Scripting lib

If you want flexibility, use "cvi_instant_lib.js" instead of "instant.js". You can make your images respond to user actions (e.g. changing one or more options when the image is hovered over).

Set defaults using Javascript
cvi_instant.defaultTilt = 'none'; //STR 'n|l|r'-'none|left|right'
cvi_instant.defaultShade = 33; //INT 0-100 (% opacity)
cvi_instant.defaultShadow = 33; //INT 0-100 (% opacity)
cvi_instant.defaultColor = '#f0f4ff'; //STR '#000000'-'#ffffff'
cvi_instant.defaultNoshade = false; //BOOLEAN
cvi_instant.defaultNocorner = false; //BOOLEAN
cvi_instant.defaultHistorical = false; //BOOLEAN
cvi_instant.defaultPreserve = false; //BOOLEAN
If cvi_text_lib.js is loaded also...
cvi_instant.defaultText = ''; //STR
cvi_instant.defaultTextcolor = '#000000'; //STR '#000000'-'#ffffff'
cvi_instant.defaultFontattr = [100,100,100]; //OBJ [1-200==weight, 10-400==width, 10-1000==space]
If cvi_filter_lib.js is loaded also...
cvi_instant.defaultFilter = null; //OBJ [{f='grayscale'},{f='emboss', s:1}...]

Add images using Javascript
cvi_instant.add(image, options);
image should be an image element: document.getElementById("myimg")
options can contain one or more values: {tilt: value, shadow: value, shade: value, color: value, noshade: value, nocorner: value, historical: value, preserve: value, text: value, textcolor: value, fontattr: [value,value,value], filter: value }
Examples:
cvi_instant.add(document.getElementById("myimg"), { shadow: 75, shade: 10 });
<img onLoad="cvi_instant.add(this, { shadow: 75, shade: 10 });" ...>

Modify images using Javascript
cvi_instant.modify(image, options);
If the image has already an effect but a option value has changed, the effect will be changed accordingly.
Example:
cvi_instant.modify(document.getElementById("myimg"), { tilt: "left" });

Remove effect from an image using Javascript
cvi_instant.remove(image);

Support libs

If you are using the more flexible "cvi_instant_lib.js" instead of "instant.js", you'll get access to additional features by the following support libraries (part of distribution):

Why use Javascript Instant Image?

In older browsers, the script degrades and your visitors won't notice a thing.
