Page Peel effects can be very useful as they create new areas -which are mostly used for banners- on websites.

In general, they are created with the help of Flash but Soh Tanaka is featuring a a very nice tutorial on creating a page peel effect with jQuery & CSS.

The logic of the effect is simple & smart. It is created by animating the size & position of a peel image which is originally positioned over the content to be shown.

What is BannerSnack?

BannerSnack is an online banner maker that enables both non-Flash-experienced & experienced Flash users to create quality Flash banners without Flash programming.

It provides all the features you may need:

• High-quality text & image effects
• Ability to control all aspects of effects & objects (durations, sizes..)
• Predefined templates (or you can create from scratch)

After creating a banner, you can embed the link provided by BannerSnack to display it. This way, you can update the banner anytime from the online banner maker application without updating your website’s code again.

Or, you can export the generated banner to a SWF file & upload it to your website (very soon).

An example banner:

To give you an idea, I have created a simple banner with the steps:

• Uploading images
• Inserting images
• Choosing the in-out effects & durations of images
• Adding a text & choosing the in-out effects & duration
• Publishing it.
• A total of 15 minutes (& it was the first time). That’s it.

Here it is:

BannerSnack has several plans (which includes a free one) to choose from. Click here to go to the product’s website.

Pagepeel, or the "magic corner" type banners were invented by Visualsteel.

They create a new banner area for websites without effecting the current banner areas and easy to implement. On the other hand, pagepeel banners have a relatively high "click per view ratio".

Including Pageear to the websites requires the steps below:

- Download Pageear files.
- Unzip the filed in a folder.
- Create to images with sizes 100×100 and 500×500. 100×100 sized image is the one which will be shown when Pageear is closed and 500×500 will be shown when user mouse overs the Pageear banner. You can pageear_b.jpg ve pageear_s.jpg files as an example. BTW, .GIF and .PNG are not supported.
- Open the Pageear.js file wit a text editor and update the paths to the .JPG and .SWF files depending on your setup.
- Include Pageear.js and AC_OETags.js in to the webpages where Pageear banner will be displayed (example below).
- Place the writeObjects() javascript function under your body tag.
- That’s all.

Pageear can also be implemented easily with the ready to use WordPress plugin, Joomla module or Typo3 extension (download links below).

Html Code Example

<html>
<head>
<title></title>
<script src= " /path_on_your_server/AC_OETags.js " mce_src= " /path_on_your_server/AC_OETags.js " language= " Javascript " ></script>
<script src= " /path_on_your_server/pageear.js " mce_src= " /path_on_your_server/pageear.js " type= " text/Javascript " ></script>
</head>
