Hi there,

I'm not sure if there is a plugin defineing exatcly the behaviour you need.
You can check it here: http://plugins.jquery.com/.
Nevertheless it's easy to implement such behaviour with jQuery.
First of all you need to make a html code that will present a single link
with picture. Make it looking exactly as you want. Mind that html structure
should be easy to traverse with jQuery (like ul, ol).
Next step is to put more links with pictures for them in a way that only one
is visible, first for example.
At the end write some js. The code should be run at the document load event.
What you need it to grab your links (<a>) and bind on them an event hover.
When you bind an event you pass a callback function which will be fired when
the event occures. Your callback function sholud hide an image that is
visible and show the image related to the link beeing hovered.
That's it!
God-speed :)
