This is the plugin which adds Gaussian Blur effect for images. This plugin uses the SVG and filter property for Internet Explorer 8-. Plugin doesn't work in Safari because it doesn't support feGaussianBlur element. You can use canvas element to support it but here is no canvas.

Here is one remark: each image should be in some container (e.g. span)

Using $('.blurImageContainer').gaussianBlur({ deviation: 3, //level of blur });

You should to add that styles: .blurImageContainer {display: inline-block; position: relative; overflow:hidden;} .blurImageContainer > .blurImage {position: absolute; top:0; left:0; z-index:1;} .blurImageContainer > [id^="blurred"] {position: absolute; top:0; left:0; z-index:0;}
