Yeah I found the animation distracting since it is so slow and keeps sliding in every time you scroll over it.
I'm used to sites having transitions or animations as you scroll, but usually that's only happening once.
ok, we decided to change it to more traditional configuration: animates only first time you scroll over it. cheers
Just to confirm, regarding your second point: you found the subtle animation unpleasant? Thank you very much for your feedback.
