Hey guys,  
Need a lil help with the fading grid effect! I have attached the files and code. When I run it, it does nothing, or, you can’t see anything… I can’t decide which it is. Please help!

Thanks. I’m trying to create that kind’ve effect on a 700 x 300 image. Wouldn’t even have to be a grid, but a fade to reveal the image and to fade faster.

Would you recommend this effect on that size?

You can always use bigger boxes if you’re concerned about the processor intensity. Just make sure both 700 and 300 can be divided by the height (or width since it’s a square) of the square 🙂
