See how many times you try this before you figure it out.

Yeah, well I got a little suspicious after the third time that it worked...OK, so I see what they're doing now. ;)
(1), but then I've seen it before so I was really just trying to remember the twiddle used. I thought the Alex Chiu banner ad was a particularly nice touch.
OK, OK...
Somebody please spoil it and tell me how they do that!
Pretty cool!

Oh goodness, I'm a fool...
I'm not going to spoil it because I want to see you kick yourself when you figure it out:)

I had complete theories about this one. Assuming that they cannot track my eyes they must have tracked my mouse movement as I guessed that everyone would incidently move their mouse unknowingly somewhat to the image they selected. To check my theory I moved my mouse to a randomly selected card and I was right. That card was gone when I clicked the link...
Anyway after about trying 10 times I finally got it :o
So I show it to my girlfriend and she tells me in about a seconds or so how they do it...
