I’ve updated my image overlay plugin yet again, to version 1.2. Again, it was a fairly minor enhancement – I added the ability to turn off the animation via an option. The translucent image overlay effect is popping up all over the web nowadays, and I want to make sure that my plugin implementation offers as much as any other technique to achieve the overlay effect.

In other development, I’ve been trying to learn how to implement iPhone style gesture controls via JavaScript. I’ve been seriously spinning my wheels on this – my demo is turning out to be a dud, of sorts. It’s frustrating (especially the testing, which I can only do on my iPhone currently), but hopefully it comes together sooner or later.
