This is cool, but... to say animations and transitions are overused on the web is an understatement.

Distracting, annoying, slow, increase webpage resource use, induce nausea in a fair number of users... ask yourself, are they really necessary or do you think they just look "cool"? If it's the latter, probably don't use them.



When fonts were new, documents were full of different fonts. Now it is animations on web pages.


Yea, it's almost always all clutter, kind of reminds me of all the animated gifs jammed onto pages in 1994.
