ImageCloud

Download Demo

ImageCloud is a jQuery plug-in based on Google’s Doodle designed for the Christmas holidays on 2010. “Basically” it was a bunch of frames with images that, when you mouse over, grow to their real size:

ImageCloud, takes all the images within a DIV tag (it could be any other though) and creates random smaller frames that grow when the mouse goes over them, and shrink when the mouse goes out. This frames are randomly positioned so you get a different imageCloud every time that you reload the page!
