- Vertical scroll: Background moves vertically on mouse scroll
- Scrolling horizontal: Background moves horizontally on mouse scroll
- Transparency: Background appears as transparent before mouse scroll
- Blurry: Background appears blurred before mouse scroll
- Ladder: Background appears in a certain scale before mouse scroll
