Image gallery

I want to add an image gallery to my website. Any recommended tools ?

I am currently browsing the jQuery plugins library, nothing very convincing. Maybe you guys have used anything before? Feedback would be appreciated .

Re: Image gallery

I used autoviewer on my personal website.
It's not hard to set up and looks good. It contains flash though and is not very friendly to slow connections because it loads all full-size images at the same time (dunno if they changed that since...).
Check it out:

@ mir:

1. What's wrong about Flash? Building galleries and interactive media is exactly what it was first intended for.
2. That's just an excuse for being lazy.

It looks nice ;)

But I'm afraid of its performances (Flash, again). After all, it was a bit laggy on my connection, and I have a pretty daln fast one.

I really like the keyboard control though, very few galleries have that.

Re: Image gallery

How about:

Galleria
Gallery View

All using JQuery. Hope this helps, good luck :)
