The wiggling is cute at first, but I think a more straightforward method of highlighting would make it easier to find the active link.

- lukifer 14y agoI suspect one reason for the wiggle is that it's unlikely to collide with the site's native styling. I actually think a better effect would be oscillating between growing and shrinking. Might not look right with links embedded in a paragraph, though.
- chetan51 14y agoExactly, wiggling works well even for links that look like buttons, among other styles of links. I played with growing and shrinking, but it looks bad because the text loses resolution as it becomes bigger (at least using CSS3 transforms).
- connor 14y agoI agree- perhaps a dimming highlight would be a bit nicer (background dims, except for a box around the selected link). Otherwise, great work.
