Look ma, no flash!

So, as I promised, I made a copy of my new flickr image viewer I just made for my brother. It looks a ton better with lots of photos and tags. The tags line up in columns when there is enough of them.

After looking at it, you may think I got a little crazy with the animation, but I think it added a feeling of interactivity when you are waiting for the AJAX call to load. That and I wanted to try out some stuff I may be using on some new projects.

I have to say, I love Mootools, but I really wish there was a better was of chaining actions. Do this, then that, but only after the first one ends. You can do it easily with animations, but only with the same instance of a class, and only animations. What If I want to fade out, then remove/replace content in an HTML element, then fade back in. Maybe im missing something… but it looks like there is no simple way to do this.

And just because I said I would… Tellart <– Take that google reader!
