I just implemented a variation of Image fades for overflow: auto to the elliotswan.com homepage. It’s quite similar to that found on the chalk.it blog.

IE users 6 and below won’t be able to see it (unless they migrate to a better browser, of course ;) ), but if your browser supports .PNG transparency and position:fixed, then it should hopefully look good.

I’d love to hear your thoughts on it, and if something looks weird in your browser please let me know. :)

EDIT: Unfortunately, I had to take it out for now, as it covers the footer and makes it impossible to use the links in it. If anybody has a solution for this, please let me know…
