Parallax 0.1 – Simple parallax effect for jQuery

I’ve seen some very cool parallax effect around lately, especially liking the Silverback site. But none of them are particularly interactive, so I thought I’d make a small implementation of the Parallax effect that interacts with the mouse.

Very early stages (and I haven’t tested it on IE yet… but you could just you conditional comments to exclude ‘those’ people anyway…) but it seems to be working ok. The options aren’t really simple, but they should be fairly self-explanatory…

Check out the demo (it is a very poor demo, please don’t look at the images, imagine it with a lovely hand drawn vector!) and get it here (minified).

Update: Created a quick demo of the silverback homepage with interactive parallax.

Update 2: Tested on IE8, seems to work fine!

Update 3: I have modified the script slightly, you can view the post here.
