This code provides a collection of CSS3 Image Hover Effects. It allows you to enhance the appearance of images on your website when users hover over them. Each effect is designed to create smooth transitions, such as zooming, sliding, rotating, blurring, grayscale, sepia, and more. These effects can add interactivity and engagement to your website’s images.

Furthermore, you can integrate these hover effects into image galleries, product showcases, or portfolio pages. These effects engage users, making your website more attractive and interactive.

How to Use CSS3 Image Hover Effects

1. First, choose the effect you want for each image by adding the relevant class to the <div> containing the <figure> and <img> elements. You can mix and match effects on different images for a diverse gallery.

2. The CSS code includes various classes like .hover01, .hover02, and so on, each corresponding to a different hover effect. To apply an effect to an image, you’ll need to add the appropriate class to the HTML element containing the image. For example, <div class="hover01"> will create the “Zoom In #1” effect.

/* Zoom In #1 */
.hover01 figure img {
	-webkit-transform: scale(1);
	transform: scale(1);
	-webkit-transition: .3s ease-in-out;
	transition: .3s ease-in-out;
}
.hover01 figure:hover img {
	-webkit-transform: scale(1.3);
	transform: scale(1.3);
}

/* Zoom In #2 */
.hover02 figure img {
	width: 300px;
	height: auto;
	-webkit-transition: .3s ease-in-out;
	transition: .3s ease-in-out;
}
.hover02 figure:hover img {
	width: 350px;
}

/* Zoom Out #1 */
.hover03 figure img {
	-webkit-transform: scale(1.5);
	transform: scale(1.5);
	-webkit-transition: .3s ease-in-out;
	transition: .3s ease-in-out;
}
.hover03 figure:hover img {
	-webkit-transform: scale(1);
	transform: scale(1);
}

/* Zoom Out #2 */
.hover04 figure img {
	width: 400px;
	height: auto;
	-webkit-transition: .3s ease-in-out;
	transition: .3s ease-in-out;
}
.hover04 figure:hover img {
