Been spotted for a while, Spancky Corners is a perfect alternative to generate CSS boxes with rounded corner. It is semantically pure CSS markup, without extra HTML to act as ‘CSS hooks’.
Just set any radius with no significant increase to file size then select your preferred foreground and background color. This tool will produce only 4 small corner GIFs together with the basic CSS and the HTML to obtain the effect.
Try this one out and hit ‘Spank Me!’ when you finish with the set

SpaceGallery - jQuery Plugin

SpaceGallery is a javascript image gallery with jQuery plugin. Whenever you’ve managed to set the parameters for this gallery, images are animated with perspective style. Almost similar to accordion image gallery, but this gallery has its minimum scale for the image in the back. So, when you click the front image, it will fade in a smooth animation and replaced with the next image.
An interesting gallery when you only have limited number of images to showcase, since this SpaceGallery is designed in one way navigation (no back and forward buttons included).
Visit the demo page to find out more and to implement this image gallery to your website if you like!
