Creating A Sticky Social Share Bar with CSS3 Transitions and Transforms

In this post we’re going to create an animated social share bar sticky at the right/left side of your web page, with smooth hover over animations based on CSS3 transitions and transforms. No JS required.

Usage:

Create the Html for the sticky social share bar following the structure like this:

<div class="sticky-container">
<ul class="sticky">
<li> <img width="32" height="32" title="" alt="" src="img/fb1.png" />
<p>Facebook</p>
</li>
<li> <img width="32" height="32" title="" alt="" src="img/tw1.png" />
<p>Twitter</p>
</li>
<li> <img width="32" height="32" title="" alt="" src="img/pin1.png" />
<p>Pinterest</p>
</li>
<li> <img width="32" height="32" title="" alt="" src="img/li1.png" />
<p>Linkedin</p>
</li>
<li> <img width="32" height="32" title="" alt="" src="img/rss1.png" />
<p>RSS</p>
</li>
<li> <img width="32" height="32" title="" alt="" src="img/tm1.png" />
<p>Tumblr</p>
</li>
<li> <img width="32" height="32" title="" alt="" src="img/wp1.png" />
<p>WordPress</p>
</li>
<li> <img width="30" height="32" title="" alt="" src="img/vm1.png" />
<p>Vimeo</p>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
