Download the required files:

Click, Download
and extract the files. Your peel/ folder
should contain the following files:

  • large.swf
  • large.jpg
  • small.swf
  • small.jpg
  • peel.js

Plan where you should upload this folder at later stage. For

WordPress users, you are
suggested to upload peel/ inside wp-content/themes/your_current_theme/.
Fow now, let’s fire up your favorite text and image editor.

2. Edit peel.js

Open peel.js with your favorite text editor. Change
these following settings:

  1. jaaspeel.ad_url – URL you intend to point to.
  2. jaaspeel.small_path – Path to small.swf
  3. jaaspeel.small_image – Path to small.jpg
  4. jaaspeel.big_path – Path to large.swf
  5. jaaspeel.big_image – Path to large.jpg

Here’s an example, assuming the domain is kevinorin.com
and I’m pointing it to kevinw.me

  1. jaaspeel.ad_url =

    escape(’http://www.kevinw.me’);
  2. jaaspeel.small_path = ’http://www.kevinorin.com/wp-content/themes/kevinorin/peel/small.swf’;
  3. jaaspeel.small_image =
    escape(’http://www.kevinorin.com/wp-content/themes/kevinorin/peel/small.jpg’);
  4. jaaspeel.big_path = ’http://www.kevinorin.com/wp-content/themes/kevinorin/peel/large.swf’;
  5. jaaspeel.big_image =
    escape(’http://www.kevinorin.com/wp-content/themes/kevinorin/peel/large.jpg’);

3. Edit the images

  • small.jpg – The small background

    visitors see before content
    behind gets revealed. Edit if you’d like to match it with your
    background.
  • large.jpg – What
    visitors will see after pointing
    their mouse to ‘peel the page off’. This is the image you’ll want to
    edit.

Both flash files, small.swf and large.swf can be left un-touch.

4. Upload files

Upload the entire peel/ folder to via FTP
your web account. Make sure it matches with the settings you’ve entered
earlier in Step 2.

5. Add Javascript in header

Add the following Javascript after <title> before </head>.

  1. <script src=”/WOW/<strong>http://www.domain.com/peel.js</strong>” type=”text/javascript”></script>
<script src="/WOW/<strong>http://www.domain.com/peel.js</strong>" type="text/javascript"></script>

You are done! Refresh the

website and you should notice a

peel away effect on the top
right corner of your site.
