Hi, Dayjo... Yes, prettyPhoto is nice and simple, but the conversation started with needing to find a plug-in which offered thumbnail images below the main imageas a slideshow or as click-able thumbnails for manual navigation. Thanks for the link! Rick On Fri, Apr 24, 2009 at 11:50 AM,

Cool. The one thing I wonder about is mixed images in landscape and portrait modes. Most gallery demos don't show that, I'm guessing cuz it's less pretty, but from my experience it's often matters. I haven't looked carefully at that one to see how it will handle those. - Jack Rick Faircloth

The site's just in the proposal state, right now, but that's one of the upgrades they wanted to their current display method. Hopefully, they'll approve the proposal any day now and I'll be more than happy to share the implementation! :o) Rick On Thu, Apr 23, 2009 at 4:15 PM, Jack Killpatrick
