Here's an animated example of how it looks on scroll down. When you see it scroll down on your actual list, it'll create an awesome 3-D illusion of depth!
Inspired by parallax style websites like this: http://www.mosandbows.com.au/. As you scroll down the list, the different categories pages will scroll by in a 3-D way like you see in the animated example. The renders and wallpapers used are high quality too, plus has unique header text that applies to manga and anime lists alike.
If you get a black bar at the bottom of your pics:
To fix this, just look at the CSS, go to the related BACKGROUND section that has the black bar, and increase the height or padding-bottom. Try to add as little as you need. It easiest to find the right amount using the Firefox add-on Firebug.
If you need to add a very large amount of one of these to a section (probably because the list or category is longer than intended) check to see if your image went out of focus. If it does, try to lower the height/padding-bottom you added as much as you can to find a medium that removes both the bar and fix the focus, and if that doesn't work out, check below.
Another way to try to fix back bars would be to scroll down to SPACE BETWEEN CATEGORIES and see if decreasing the padding-bottom (a little at a time, around 20-50px) works for you.
If you get an out of focus background image:
To best fix this just look under the background notes in the code for info to fix this up by changing some sections to background-attachment: fixed;.
Play around with the settings to see what works best for you! Knowing Firebug really helps with adjusting this layout!

Finally I got the one I wanted. But I think the category links for Watching, Completed etc. are blocked or something. I made the category link like the Mio Akiyama Dating Style and thought to fuse it along with the transition by Hahaido.
Lol I tried to close all the codes which made no sense to me using firebug but nothing happened. Do I have to work out in this list without category links? If it's complicated, I switch to other list ^_^

No its not supposed to have category links, its supposed to always be on all anime so when you scroll through you get the 5 backgrounds effect. They should be removed somehow by the CSS. I guess its the opposite of Mio Dating style.
Also can I have the bottom background image you're using please?
Before I start searching for the codes to unblock category links, I got two queries:
1. How to reduce the size of the planned section? It's friggin too long!
2. It's weird but it is actually happening. I saved this portion
in the CSS file which is linked through dropbox, the covers don't show up. When I post em directly in the MAL box, the 'table' from #list_surround table:nth-of-type(n+4) tbody:hover part gets filtered. But I can see the covers when I type table through firebug. What wrong thing am I doing??
Also Shishio-kun ,can I use the idea of your Moecraft world first page style?? It's amazing!!!!! When I first saw Mio Akiyama sim style I decided I'm definitely gonna do something like that ^_^
The last problem is solved the list is looking much better. Lol for FMAB break.
Anyways, the breaking thing is still not fixed.
And now I can switch back to Currently Watching as my list's first page! I used the futuristic icon style top bar! Well holidays are over tomorrow so I don't think I would be able to work before the next festive vacation. Still then, now I can tinker with the pages a lil' bit ^_^
And Shishio-kun, here's all the pics I used. Feel free to pick em' ^_^
Watching
Hi I really like this list and i'm using it now, however I was wondering if it's possible to put images of the anime when you scroll over the name? I really like that feature!

You'd have to use the add-on and see if it works with this layout; add-ons are under Customize your List on the front page.

DrGonzo7 said: I wish there was a version for longer lists. :( Are there any plans for one?
Yeah some day I'd like to get back to this one. I rushed it out and made a number of bad decisions when I made it, which I can correct now lol and it would be way better.
Yeah this is a big problem recently as Imageshack is deleting many of my images even tho I'm following their old and new policies, which they changed dramatically to overwhelming negative attn...
Later tonight I'll try to get around to replacing all these layouts wallpapers and moving them to Imgur. Thank God all I need to do is copy and paste a URL and the image is moved in most cases.
Also I'm glad ppl like this layout I love it and it can be improved greatly! It could be coded much better and look more professional. Someday I will get around to it since we need a stunning Sena layout, shes #1 right now!

Tinypic is moving around their image links, sometimes this is temporary so wait till tomorow and we'll see if they return. if not I'll just have to replace the links in the layout with imgur

I've fixed up this layout a lot. The wallpapers should work on more screen sizes, and I've moved the images on this layout from Imageshack to Imgur so they won't be deleted anytime soon hopefully. Also adjusted the code so the table can be moved to the right, and its easier to adjust the coverage of the pics!
