Something is wrong when you are selling image quality and your site features blurry artifacted images.

The animations are nice, but they are basically doing frame by frame 704 × 396 movie that look terrible when pushed to 1920 wide.

Just use a proper video format, which is much more efficient.



I'm curious why the images have artefacts (or pre-loading fuzz)? A year or so ago Andreas Gysin did something very similar http://ertdfgcvb.ch/p2/sm/play/protog3 and for some reason does not have the artefact issue. (code for that here http://ertdfgcvb.com/sequencer/)


Try running them on MBPr then ;) And don't forget that they get blurred even more by webkit while scrolling - I guess -webkit-translate is the culprit responsible for that.
