Bring motion to any section the moment a visitor moves their cursor. Image Trail Effect drops a stream of images along the pointer's path — each card springs in, drifts, and fades out, leaving a living trail of visuals that follows every move.

Features

• Cursor-driven trail — images spawn along the pointer path with adjustable spacing (Threshold) so the density feels just right

• 8 exit styles — Fade, Zoom, Shrink, Drift, Spin, Fall, Blur, and Flip; Drift even follows the cursor's velocity

• Your own images — add any number of images, and they cycle through the trail automatically

• Full card control — set item width, aspect ratio, corner radius, and random rotation range

• Custom cursor — Default, Hidden, Crosshair, Pointer, or your own image with adjustable size

• Optional hint text — show a "move your cursor" prompt with custom text, color, and font

• Smooth physics — spring-based entrance with a tidy auto-cleanup, no lag, no GSAP
