Background animation using jQuery
You can actually animate a background image with jQuery – though it’s not as easy as it sounds.
There are cross-browser concerns.
I’ve tested many ways to achieve it and in this post there is code that should work cross-browser. Let’s dig in…

Creating a namespace in JavaScript
If you don’t namespace your code – you should.
It not only encloses the code but also gives it a unique name for reference.
This avoids “code collision”, where two like named objects or functions can break your code.
