Add  different effects to those photos.The COOL thing about this is you just have to add some jQuery and Css to your template then you can easily add from Five hover effects to add some live to your blog photos.

Lets look through the effects and you can also check out this sample in action here.

The 5 effects will be :

Effect 1 - Popout, this is a basic pop out effect on hover the photos will pop out from the page.
Effect 2 - SliceDown, The image will have an dark overlay and on hover a slice effect reveals the image clearly.
Effect 3 - BoxRandom, The image has a light overlay and on hover the image is revealed by boxes randomly clearing.
Effect 4 - FoldLeft, Once again the image has a light overlay and this time on hover an accordion fold effect reveals the image.

How to Add The Effect To Your Pics

Now we need to add a class tag to pics we want the effect on.So as you seen them on the demo ; if you want to use Effect 1 you add class="effect1" for Effect 2 you add class="effect2" and so on.Below I show were to add this class tag on your pics.

Then if your upload the pics or images directly onto Blogger we have an easy way to add the class.The code below is how the html for an image looks when uploaded to Blogger.

Important - This is when you upload the image in compose mode then switch to html mode.

    <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
    <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTspqHJ7VFYX65NEe_ZksRAZ5AaXH-DFXtijn8jEYjisgyQON8ref5VlcY-yFzol_nfQzanSKSPrV3iQS0pBptd6D0IyorWh36L8sVE5K_FOFR44ZWTr49d1YG_afsbG1vHSrf5vG2YxAb/s1600/image-effects-image-2.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTspqHJ7VFYX65NEe_ZksRAZ5AaXH-DFXtijn8jEYjisgyQON8ref5VlcY-yFzol_nfQzanSKSPrV3iQS0pBptd6D0IyorWh36L8sVE5K_FOFR44ZWTr49d1YG_afsbG1vHSrf5vG2YxAb/s1600/image-effects-image-2.png" /></a></div>


You can see highlighted div class="separator" we change this to div class="effect1" (or effect2 etc..) like this below :

    <div class="effect1" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
    <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTspqHJ7VFYX65NEe_ZksRAZ5AaXH-DFXtijn8jEYjisgyQON8ref5VlcY-yFzol_nfQzanSKSPrV3iQS0pBptd6D0IyorWh36L8sVE5K_FOFR44ZWTr49d1YG_afsbG1vHSrf5vG2YxAb/s1600/image-effects-image-2.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTspqHJ7VFYX65NEe_ZksRAZ5AaXH-DFXtijn8jEYjisgyQON8ref5VlcY-yFzol_nfQzanSKSPrV3iQS0pBptd6D0IyorWh36L8sVE5K_FOFR44ZWTr49d1YG_afsbG1vHSrf5vG2YxAb/s1600/image-effects-image-2.png" /></a></div>


When you add pics or images in html mode or adding externally hosted images your image code will be like this :

    <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTspqHJ7VFYX65NEe_ZksRAZ5AaXH-DFXtijn8jEYjisgyQON8ref5VlcY-yFzol_nfQzanSKSPrV3iQS0pBptd6D0IyorWh36L8sVE5K_FOFR44ZWTr49d1YG_afsbG1vHSrf5vG2YxAb/s1600/image-effects-image-2.png"><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTspqHJ7VFYX65NEe_ZksRAZ5AaXH-DFXtijn8jEYjisgyQON8ref5VlcY-yFzol_nfQzanSKSPrV3iQS0pBptd6D0IyorWh36L8sVE5K_FOFR44ZWTr49d1YG_afsbG1vHSrf5vG2YxAb/s1600/image-effects-image-2.png" /></a>


We add the class as shown below :

    <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTspqHJ7VFYX65NEe_ZksRAZ5AaXH-DFXtijn8jEYjisgyQON8ref5VlcY-yFzol_nfQzanSKSPrV3iQS0pBptd6D0IyorWh36L8sVE5K_FOFR44ZWTr49d1YG_afsbG1vHSrf5vG2YxAb/s1600/image-effects-image-2.png"><img class="effect1" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTspqHJ7VFYX65NEe_ZksRAZ5AaXH-DFXtijn8jEYjisgyQON8ref5VlcY-yFzol_nfQzanSKSPrV3iQS0pBptd6D0IyorWh36L8sVE5K_FOFR44ZWTr49d1YG_afsbG1vHSrf5vG2YxAb/s1600/image-effects-image-2.png" /></a>


For this we used the idea from the Adipoli jQuery Image Hover Plugin.
