I noticed a new cool JavaScript effect with a nice inbuilt slideshow feature : Lightview from Nick Stakenburg.
For fans of Prototype and rounded corners, I suggest to try out this effect with NextGEN Gallery. Thanks to my flexible effect interface you can adapt it very easy to your blog :
1. Download the plugin Lightview-Plus from Puzich
2. Change in the gallery options the effect code to ”Custom” and enter in the “Link Code line” :
class="lightview" rel="gallery[%GALLERY_NAME%]"
(If you copy and paste the code, check for the the correct double quotes !!!)
Have fun…
The script seems slow, probably due to corner rounding.
I can’t find any “Custom” effect code in the gallery options. Where do I go wrong? I’m currently running NextGEN Gallery ver. 0.95. Thanks for any help!
SOLVED! Here you can find how:

It seems like the layout is not completely good with Mozilla Firfox.
Currently I’m using Mozilla Firefox 3 Beta 5 and everytрing is OK with Lightview script
I’m not seeing a “Link Code line.”
Where is it hidden or does it have a new name in v2?
Or is this too advanced for me?
It looks great but it is way to slow
I agree Prototype apps are slower…
Alex, I have discovered another javascript effect by phatfusion: multibox, it looks cool!

WOW! Multibox looks really great!!! It`d be wonderfull if it can be a WP plugin…
Sorry for my english!
best regards
Hey Alex,
great Job (as usual ^^)! But there’s one thing bugging me: Under Safari 3.1.1 from MacOS X Leopard the fading to dark effect does not work properly. You can go ahead and check it out on my homepage if you like. However the effect itself works fine on Nick Stakenburg’s site…
Anyways,
keep up the great work!
I like the NextGen Gallery and the Lightview but don’t have the expertise to install them on my two blogs. I will pay you one hundred dollars to do it if you are interested.
@David
You should not spend so much money for a silly operation. Read the plugin description of Lightview Plus and also post a message in the forums. I’m pretty sure somebody can help you without money.
And then you can donate the money to the plugin and projects which you are using and do the right work for you…
You ever saw this: FancyZoom Even better than multibox…
the watermark function of NextGen Gallary stops working after i’ve installed lightview…any solution for that? thanks a lot~~
Thank you .Read the plugin description of Lightview Plus and also post a message in the forums

thank you finid. I did figure it out somehow and it is operating nicely on my photo blog. It seems like a very sturdy plugin and I have had no problems with it.
And I did take the money and invest it in someone who is creating a very nice plugin for my photo blog. Hopefully it will be available for everyone soon.
Hey Alex,
Thank you for this wonderful plugin!
It solves my biggest problems…
Can anybody give me a hint how to integrate the “Multibox” lightbox? There is a plugin at http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wordpress-multibox-plugin/
According to the plugin’s author, the class “mb” will trigger Multibox. So, I was trying to add the following code in Options > Effects:
class=”mb” rel=”gallery[%GALLERY_NAME%]”
But no lightbox at all appears.
Can somebody give me a hint?
Thank you much in advance!

Got it.
class=”wmp” rel=”gallery[%GALLERY_NAME%]”
