 ## Design Guidelines
 
-Animations, like many facets of visual and interaction design, can be highly subjective. Maintaining a consistent library of animations in an active community can be difficult; these design guidelines are designed to help encourage thoughtful criticism of new animations that are proposed for Animate.css.

+The transitions in transition.css should follow a few key principles:
 
-- **Animations should be subtle.** Avoid creating animations that involve large translations, or span a natural duration of longer than 1 second.
-- **Animations should be tolerable.** Related to subtlety, animations should be tolerable—seeing them repeatedly should not become too annoying or overbearing.
-- **Animations should not interfere with document flow or control/input availability.** In other words, the absence of an animation should never reduce usability of a product: they should be non-critical and seen as “progressive enhancements”. Avoid animations that change properties such as `position` or `display`.
-- **Animations should be helpful.** They should be designed to guide users to a point of interest, ease natural reading order, or to communicate relationships between elements.
-- **Animations should feel familial.** Avoid introducing animations that feel out-of-place compared to the existing set.
-- **Animations should feel natural.** Animations should reflect, as much as is reasonable, motion that occurs in natural physics. Avoid extreme timing functions, and model animations on real-world events.
