Page Peel is a popular page flip effect that when your cursor is passing
over it will show "what's behind" as if it would be a book.
There are many ways to do this, many of them use flash files which makes it less customizable, however, the one that we will see in this post is made with jQuery.
Regularly the content that is "behind" it is an image for subscribing to feed but you can put any image and link to any page.
In red you can see where the name of your blog should be added, that will be the link to the feed of your blog when the user is giving a click on the image behind, but you can put any URL in case you want to link to another page.
And that's it. Save the template.
Remember that uses jQuery, so you should only have one version of it, and if you use Scriptaculous or Mootools, you should apply some changes.
