efxFactory allows you to apply shadows or reflection to images. It uses the mootools library as support.
Using this effect, you can create a simple shadow on your images without using any image editor.
The sample bellow was created by calling efxFactory.shadow($("thumbShadow1"));.
You can change the amount of shadow to create...
a smaller shadow with efxFactory.shadow($("thumbShadow2"),{amount:0.5});.
or a bigger shadow with efxFactory.shadow($("thumbShadow2"),{amount:2});.
You can even change the opacity of shadow to create a bigger shadow but more transparent with efxFactory.shadow($("thumbShadow4"),{amount:2, opacity:1/20});.
You can also add a border to the image and change the shadow color using efxFactory.shadow($("thumbShadow5"),{borderColor:"#ffffff", color:"red"});
With this effect, create simple image reflections.
efxFactory.reflect($("thumbRefect1"));
You can change how the reflection looks, by setting opacity, distance or amount values.
efxFactory.reflect($("thumbRefect2"), {opacity:1/6});
efxFactory.reflect($("thumbRefect3"),{distance:2});
efxFactory.reflect($("thumbRefect4"),{amount:1/5});
