How to add Image Hover Effects to a Pixnet blog

Embed Image Hover Effects on Pixnet

01

Create a Image Hover Effects widget for Pixnet on Common Ninja

First, create a Pixnet Image Hover Effects widget on Common Ninja. On the widgets catalog, find the Image Hover Effects and enter the Editor.

02

Save the Image Hover Effects widget

When you're done creating the Image Hover Effects widget, click on the Save Changes button at the right top corner of the editor. If you don't have an account on Common Ninja, you'll have to register first.

03

Copy the Image Hover Effects Embed Code

When you're ready to add the Image Hover Effects widget to your Pixnet blog, click the Add To Website button at the top bar of the Editor. On the window that opens, click the Copy Icon to copy the widget embed code. In the next steps, you will paste this code into your Pixnet blog.

04

Paste the code to your Pixnet website’s HTML field.

Next, go to your Pixnet blog editor and find the HTML field. It is most likely in the form of an HTML/Code widget or module which you can find on the Pixnet’s editor. Add it to your page, and paste the Image Hover Effects Embed Code you’ve copied before to the HTML field. Save and update, and that’s it, you should have Common Ninja’s Image Hover Effects widget on your Pixnet blog.

05

Alternative Method 1: Through the HTML option in the text’s editing area.

If you can't find the HTML/Code widget or module, there's another way to put Common Ninja’s Image Hover Effects widget on your Pixnet widget. You can just add the code to a special HTML section in the text editor.

06

Alternative Method 2: Add it directly to your Pixnet blog’s HTML code.

If you're having trouble finding a widget or a special part in your text editor where you can add the Embed Code, you can try a different way to add the Image Hover Effects widget to your Pixnet blog. You can do this by putting it straight into your Pixnet blog's HTML code.

Why Use This Widget

Use the Image Hover Effects widget when you want static images to reveal more context or personality only when users show interest. On hover, you can display text overlays, subtle animations, or additional details that keep the layout clean while still providing rich information. This is useful for portfolios, team sections, product collections, and blog grids where each tile needs a little extra explanation. The interactive effect catches the eye without feeling aggressive and encourages exploration as visitors move their cursor or tap. It also helps differentiate important images from purely decorative ones, signalling that there is meaningful content connected to the visual.
