I have a slideshow of portfolio project images playing in a loop on my site's homepage. I also have a list of links with names of all the projects. Is it possible to change text color in a specific sequence such that when a project image is displayed, the project name/link becomes highlighted?  

If so, does it make sense to animate both the images and the text together? Or have them as two separate functions, and just time it correctly so they correspond?

Thanks!
