That is nice and all, but personally I don't want to load all images in a gallery to see one of them. As CSS cannot generate images on the fly (well it could with :after - anyone take up the challenge?) you just cannot make a gallery with CSS and HTML exclusively. You can create something that looks like a gallery, but in reality is all the images on one page with hiding and showing (and in most cases inaccessible to keyboard users). IMHO the idea of a thumbnail gallery is to offer the user low-bandwidth previews of the full images, and that is only possible via the backend, static pages or a CSS/HTML/JS solution. There's lightbox: http://www.huddletogether.com/projects/lightbox2/ And i've done some of those in the past: http://icant.co.uk/articles/dyngallery/ http://www.wait-till-i.com/index.php?p=212 http://icant.co.uk/badgr/ ^ this is up for testing!
