## Usage:



1. Copy the contents of src/{images,javascripts,stylesheets} to the corresponding asset directories in your project.

 Remember to include jquery.tipsy.js *after* including the main jQuery library.

         $(function() {

	       $('a[rel=tipsy]').tipsy({fade: true, gravity: 'n'});

	     });
