    I would suggest looking at the Shadowbox-JS plugin. It automatically adds the script needed to your images and you can use the basic gallery shortcode in your pages.

    Thanks Dodger. I am trying to do something like html5mania(.com). Images will not open however click on a image would go to the respective website.

    Ah, I see. In that case, you can create a category for your links section to hold all of the data you need (Page Title, Page Url, Image Source) then create a custom home.php (or any other custom page-xxxx.php file) then cycle through those links using wp_list_bookmarks().

    And ShadowBox-JS handles iFrames as well, and you may be able to get those links to open that way rather than leaving the site.

    I use jquery galleryview and added php pagination with a seed to show random items.

    If you don't know enough about coding and want quick and easy, do it with wordpress and a gallery plugin.

    Another easy way, albeit VERY basic (static and not dynamic pages) is to export the gallery via Photoshop and let it build the pages for you.

    i often use jquery for create a gallery, it had a lot of custom style gallery.
    you just need to copy .js & add .css to your site,
    and create 1 custom .php for handling the gallery.

    if you still have a problem, don't hesitate to contact me,
    i'll help you friend :D

    I am not using any gallery plugin just using inbuilt functionality from the theme. Working good now. Thanks

    Thanks CSM, I couldn't use Pligg for this project, website is done. However I will be taking a look at pligg on my localhost, I will give you shout on your PM inbox if I need a help.
