Animate what's important....not things just because you can.
We like using CSS animations as long as they don't hide any content, because we think they create a much more enjoyable experience on our marketing pages. We try to use them only when it makes sense, and in that case, indeed, it does not. Thanks for the feedback.
Things weren't flying across the screen over text -- they simply have a small embellishment keeping me interested a little bit more on the page instead of clicking over to a different site.
Nicely done.
To others that would like to add some dynamic animation to their pages: take notes! keep it subtle.
