Cute CSS-based Rollover Trick
Typical rollover uses multiple images, one for each state. Petr Stanicek shows how CSS2's background-position attribute can be used to do rollover with just one image containing subimages for multiple states. Cute. Via Paschal L.

For the impatient, here is the meat:

#menu a { ...
    background: url("button.gif") top left no-repeat;
... }
#menu a:hover { ...
    background-position: 0 -39px;
... }
#menu a:active { ...
    background-position: 0 -78px;
... }

Flash Head
I'm not sure how to describe this Flash app. Maybe something like this: It's a partial head that moves in response to your mouse. The author calls it "Looking," and says: "This is one of the hardest things I have ever managed to code. The engine is based on a single image and multiple clips sandwiched together. The math involved in the movement is still really buggy.... but hey! it's gettin there." The site is called ARSEIam, and it has lots of other cool stuff.
