UNOFFICIAL Interesting - I don't have access to Chrome at work - but in FireFox it moves slowly and gracefully and has a drop-shadow (missing in IE8) reflected below the search box - so they have taken some time to do some rather classy work....

The mobile graphic is non-interactive in IE7 but looks fine. In Chrome, however, the graphic swings about in response to mouse movements (as does its shadow, not present for IE7). Could anyone advise: (i) what technologies were used for this (canvas, etc.), and (ii) whether it is possible to save a working copy of the page locally in order to study its function (I've never had luck doing this with Google themes).
