CSS3: Image rotation with css transforms
This is a small bit of CSS3 and jQuery that rotates an image to follow mouse movement. Put the following below the image you wish to rotate
<script type="text/javascript">
var img = $('.image');
if(img.length > 0){
var offset = img.offset();
function mouse(evt){
var center_x = (offset.left) + (img.width()/2);
var center_y = (offset.top) + (img.height()/2);
var mouse_x = evt.pageX; var mouse_y = evt.pageY;
var radians = Math.atan2(mouse_x - center_x, mouse_y - center_y);
var degree = (radians * (180 / Math.PI) * -1) + 90;
img.css('-moz-transform', 'rotate('+degree+'deg)');
img.css('-webkit-transform', 'rotate('+degree+'deg)');
img.css('-o-transform', 'rotate('+degree+'deg)');
img.css('-ms-transform', 'rotate('+degree+'deg)');
}
$(document).mousemove(mouse);
}
</script>
Then simply give your image the class name "image"
And for example:
