I had two instances of jquery in my code and everything used to work. I decided to get rid of wordpress stock jquery by deregistering it through functions.php file. But now not a single jquery animation/script I've works!

I've jquery hardcoded in my header though:

<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.1/jquery.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

You can check my problem here: http://dev.holiday.ge/

what is going on? please help me :)

Include jQuery the correct way with Function Reference/wp enqueue script « WordPress Codex; that method includes jQuery in "no conflict" mode with toher libraries and other javascript http://docs.jquery.com/Using_jQuery_with_Other_Libraries , and if you use Dev tools or Firebug, you will find two JS errors

TypeError: 'undefined' is not a function (evaluating '$(".prefooterslides")') settings.js:7 TypeError: 'undefined' is not a function (evaluating '$('.ac_results ul')') settings.js:85

which are a result of jQuery variable conflicts.

If you're stuck on using a Google hosted version of jQuery, there are two plugins that come to mind:

But as @songdogtech eluded to and @toscho mentioned, it's better to just use the core if you're not 100% comfortable with JavaScript debugging (if anything pops up as it did) and do not control the environment completely.

He's not stuck with using ajax.googleapis.com; it's his choice. And those plugins include ajax.googleapis.com in no conflict mode, which is the issue here and the cause of the errors. – songdogtech Oct 2 '12 at 13:16
Gotcha - thanks for pointing out. – Zach Oct 2 '12 at 13:25
