swfIR: swf Image Replacement
swfIR (swf Image Replacement) is here to solve some of the design limitations of the standard HTML image and its widely-accepted associated CSS values, while still supporting standards-based design concepts. Using the dark arts of JavaScript and Flash, swfIR gives you the ability to apply an assortment of visual effects to any or all images on your website. Through progressive enhancement, it looks through your page and can easily add some new flavor to standard image styling.
Two problems.
- I usually don’t need this enough on a single website to justify the added load
- flash block is my favorite extension. Most people don’t use it, true. But I don’t want to get annoyed going to my own websites
