Yeah I probably didn't explain it well. :) I wasn't talking about animating the text, but rather changing the opacity of each letter. I had seen a javascript demo on some site do this (I can't for the life of me find it now), and thought it might make a good plugin.
Here's a quick photoshop of what it might look like: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v215/thegooddale/heading.png So you'd tell the plugin to have the first letter start at 20% opacity and finish at 100% in 4 letters or whatever, and then repeat in reverse for the last 4 letters. Or if it's not possible to set the opacity of a single letter, you could calculate the colour needed to simulate opacity in relation to the background colour. e.g. the second letter in the image has a colour of #9F98FF, whereas the fully saturated blue in the middle is #1200FF On Apr 1, 9:58 pm, Karl Swedberg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi Yansky, > > I believe that the extended .animate() method provided in Interface > can do this already, and a whole lot more.
