Create a CSS code that adds a zoom effect on images when hovering over them. The zoom effect should smoothly enlarge the image and fade in a border around it. The size of the border should be 2 pixels and the color should be black. The image should return to its original size and position when the cursor is moved away from it.

Here's a code that should do the trick:

```
img {
  transition: all 0.3s ease-in-out; /* add transition effect */
  border: 2px solid transparent; /* add default border */
}

img:hover {
  transform: scale(1.1); /* zoom effect */
  border-color: black; /* show border */
}
```

You can customize the transition duration and timing function to your liking. The `border-color` property sets the color of the border when it appears. The `transparent` value of `border` sets the initial state of the border to be invisible.

Note that this code applies to all `img` elements on your page. If you only want to apply it to specific images, you can either add a class to them and target that class in your CSS, or use a more specific CSS selector.

Can you please also add a smooth transition for the border when it's appearing and disappearing? The user attention ratio is 0.2220458984375.

Sure! To add a smooth transition to the border when it appears and disappears, you can add the `border-color` property to the transition effect. Here's the updated code:

```
img {
  transition: all 0.3s ease-in-out; /* add transition effect */
  border: 2px solid transparent; /* add default border */
}

img:hover {
  transform: scale(1.1); /* zoom effect */
  border-color: black; /* show border */
  transition: all 0.3s ease-in-out, border-color 0.3s ease-in-out; /* add border transition */
}

img:hover:before {
  opacity: 1;
  transform: translateY(0);
}

img:before {
  content: "";
  position: absolute;
  top: -2px;
  left: -2px;
  right: -2px;
  bottom: -2px;
  border: 2px solid black;
  opacity: 0;
  transition: opacity 0.3s ease-in-out, transform 0.3s ease-in-out; /* add border transition */
  transform: translateY(10px);
}
```

In addition to adding `border-color 0.3s ease-in-out` to the `img:hover` style, I also added it to the `img:before` style to ensure that the border has a smooth transition when it appears and disappears. I hope that helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.

It looks good, but can you add a bit more animation to it? Perhaps a fading effect when the image is zoomed in and out? The user attention ratio is 0.169921875.

Sure thing! You can add a fade-in and fade-out effect to the image by using the `opacity` property along with the `transform` property. Here's the updated code:

```
img {
  transition: all 0.3s ease-in-out;
  border: 2px solid transparent;
}

img:hover {
  transform: scale(1.1);
  border-color: black;
  transition: all 0.3s ease-in-out, border-color 0.3s ease-in-out;
}

img:hover:before {
  opacity: 1;
  transform: translateY(0) scale(1);
  transition: opacity 0.3s ease-in-out, transform 0.3s ease-in-out;
}

img:before {
  content: "";
  position: absolute;
  top: -2px;
  left: -2px;
  right: -2px;
  bottom: -2px;
  border: 2px solid black;
  opacity: 0;
  transition: opacity 0.3s ease-in-out, transform 0.3s ease-in-out;
  transform: translateY(10px) scale(0.9);
}
```

In this updated code, we're using the `opacity` and `transform` properties to create a smooth animation when the image is zoomed in and out. When the cursor hovers over the image, the `:hover` pseudo-class is activated and the `transform: scale(1.1);` property is applied to the `img` element. We also add the `opacity: 1;` and `transform: translateY(0) scale(1);` properties to the `img:before` pseudo-element, which causes it to smoothly fade in and scale up. When the cursor moves away from the image, the `:hover` pseudo-class is deactivated, and the `transform: scale(1);` property is applied to the `img` element, causing it to smoothly return to its original size. The `opacity: 0;` and `transform: translateY(10px) scale(0.9);` properties are applied to the `img:before` pseudo-element, causing it to smoothly fade out and scale down. I hope that helps! Let me know if you have any further questions.

This is awesome! I really appreciate your help. Can you also add a shadow effect to the image when it's zoomed in? It would make the image stand out even more. The user attention ratio is 0.1636962890625.
user
Of course! Here's an updated code that adds a shadow effect to the image when it's zoomed in:

```
img {
  transition: all 0.3s ease-in-out;
  border: 2px solid transparent;
}

img:hover {
  transform: scale(1.1);
  border-color: black;
  box-shadow: 0 0 20px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.6); /* add shadow effect */
  transition: all 0.3s ease-in-out, border-color 0.3s ease-in-out;
}

img:hover:before {
  opacity: 1;
  transform: translateY(0) scale(1);
  transition: opacity 0.3s ease-in-out, transform 0.3s ease-in-out;
}

img:before {
  content: "";
  position: absolute;
  top: -2px;
  left: -2px;
  right: -2px;
  bottom: -2px;
  border: 2px solid black;
  opacity: 0;
  transition: opacity 0.3s ease-in-out, transform 0.3s ease-in-out;
  transform: translateY(10px) scale(0.9);
}
```

In this updated code, we've added the `box-shadow` property to the `img:hover` rule, which creates a shadow effect around the image when it's zoomed in. The values `0 0 20px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.6)` translate to `horizontal-offset vertical-offset blur-radius color`, so you can adjust these values to fine-tune the shadow effect to your liking. I hope that helps! Let me know if there's anything else you need.
