Inside, Outside, Upside-down

Summary:

I threw this together overnight (and have tweaked it some since then).  Just applying a few little CSS party tricks that I've learned or developed along the way... 😉

My tricks aren't revealed in the narration, but since this is a How To series, you should be able to ferret them out by now — and if not, then take it as your homework challenge! ❤️

Best viewed on a COMPUTER browser with a MOUSE, not a 'phone where some effects will be missed or simply not optimized (though there are a couple of surprises that appear on iPhone [not Android] rather than desktop browsers).

Chapter 1: Unclickable

Summary:

〽  ♪  ♫
Click, click, as click as you can,
you can't click these:
they're un-clickable, man!
 

Unless you'd prefer...

〽  ♪  ♫
Can't touch this

 
  — U can't touch this
    M. C. Hammer, 1991

Though I did leave some things still-clickable — just a few... OK, one thing, but still.  And an escape, should you get frustrated.  Yeah... about that?  I lied: the escape is the only thing that I left clickable. 😅

Notes:

  ●  CAUTION on Chrome if sound enabled via button in address bar or through settings (Chrome://settings ► Privacy and security ► Site settings ► Permissions ► Sound = Allow [not “Automatic”], or basically chrome://settings/content/siteDetails?site=https%3A%2F%2Farchiveofourown.org%2F).
  ●  CAUTION on Firefox and TOR if sound enabled through settings.
  ●  CAUTION on Firefox with permissions to allow audio via button in address bar.
  ●  CAUTION on [MS] Edge with autoplay enabled.
  ●  Probably safe under iOS Safari and Android Chrome restrictions; can confirm no autoplay on my iPhone or Android;
  ●  Opera is silent for me, even with Site Sounds enabled.
