A group of us at work take modules like this and reverse engineer them to see what we can learn, borrow and gain inspiration from. A few takeaways we had include:
– Be sure to turn off the block animations so that your image and blocks load at the same time
– There is a size limit to how small the image can be and remain sharp. Interestingly, it has to be about 150 pixels high and no smaller, or it blurs. So adjusting the padding for each block will be necessary to keep things balanced.
– You can create the curved images in just about any tool that exports as a .png. So yes to PPT and Keynote. If you right-click on the curved image in the example, you can open the image in a new tab and download it for easy tracing. We changed the design and used it on the tops and bottoms of blocks, with two-tone colors and curves to keep it interesting.
Sidenote: It would be cool if, with posts like this, we could do a quick little shareout to talk about it in this community. If you are interested in a grassroots version of that, let me know. I love to learn from the community.
