This info below is from the Hongkiat.com Newsletter that comes out daily.  (It 
is an amazing blog!)  Click on the hyperlinks below to check out these two new 
photo transition options.  They are quite elegant.  Code is provided for free.  
Hopefully Firefox and IE will come up to speed and support these soon.  Right 
now only Google & Safari do.  Enjoy!

7. Slicebox Slider With Graceful Fallback
My favorite CSS3 freebie from 2011 probably has to be the Slicebox 3D Image 
Slider released byCodrops. It utilizes beautiful CSS animation transitions in 
browsers which support them, currently in Google Chrome and the latest in 
Safari. It’s weird that even the most recent Firefox or IE9 release still can’t 
use these transitions.



The best part about this code is that it’ll still fallback to provide basic 
transition effects between the images. Granted much of the animation is 
performed through jQuery, but the standard CSS fallback option is still very 
reliable considering how many browsers cannot support flashy CSS3 animations.

Alternatively Codrops also just recently released another sliding images panel 
which utilizes even more creative CSS3 techniques. This image slider is created 
using background images in CSS, so even without the transition effects it 
behaves very smoothly.
