Lightbox2

[MindBrain]

Hello I got Lightbox2 working for a webpage but it added like 200k, probably for features I don't need. I've read that you can take out features to get a more minimal implementation but I can't find out much about this. Anyone have a link to a guide or something that talks about this. I'd like to get the file size down as low as possible.

I tried getting jQueryLightbox to work as it's much smaller but I couldn't get it to work and couldn't find a guide for beginners about it, anyone have a link for this as well? Thanks

Maybe try Slimbox

If you really wanna have some fun this site lists about every lightbox clone and similar type of modal windows you would ever want or need:

I personally like:
http://fancy.klade.lv/
or
http://www.nickstakenburg.com/projects/lightview/ (this one even has a built in automated slideshow)

Awesome, thanks for those links. Some real gems in there.

just remember with Lightview although it is the nicest you do require a license to use it!

Yes good point - they have a series of licenses available depending on use. We've used it a couple times (with license) and it's been fabulous, especially in gallery situations.
