In reply to Wenzel Massag.

I'd be interested in knowing how it goes after you've played around with SVG more. I looked into them about a year ago (I think). At the time they didn't seem quite ready for production and I've held off using them.

Lately I've been thinking it's time to take another look and see where we are. Maybe I'll use the comments here as inspiration and come up with a post. I've been collecting resources for awhile.

I hear you about animation. Cool example! When I look at some of the css that's on it's way I get really excited about all the things we're going to be able to do. We'll have to wait for some older browsers to go away (looking at you IE) or maybe for a polyfill or two.

Masking is really cool too. It seems like little by little some of the things we do in image editors are coming to css.
