It’s that time of year again for these types of lists.  Here’s a list from the UK’s The Guardian.

Any comments?

Silhouette Fadeins

Silhouette Fadeins | CSS-Tricks.

This is a really neat idea.  I have no idea how, but when I get around to creating a new theme, this is an idea I might want to incorporate.  The subject of the tutorial here – a band’s website – really fits this effect.
