Hi, I found another cool flash photo galleries plugin for WordPress. Named GRAND Flash Album Gallery – multi category flash skin based photo gallery with powerful admin. I used it in my blog. There are so many different settings. You can adjust the color scheme for your blog as you wish. There are many different skins. You can present your photo gallery in a wonderful way, there is a full-screen mode. This is a very cool plugin.

Really liking #12 – Image Shadow looking back over this list. You could make a better frame in Photoshop, but for the simplicity of what it does it is pretty awesome.

I tend to agree about the visual side of things. I like the thicker white border at times, especially for dark photos. And the caption is nicely designed into the basebar. I also found it a bit annoying that it drifted off the screen slightly – like only 50px, but enough so that people would miss the description and sometimes the close button.

With so many LightBox type plugins out there, I’m sure it’s only a matter of time before the next really cool one comes along combining the best of both worlds.

I use LightBox a lot for my photo sites, and I prefer how it looks to ShadowBox, but it’s always bugged me when I add a longer description how it pushes beneath the fold and people can’t read it.

I tried hacking the Javascript code to get it to stay within the window but I couldn’t get it to work ShadowBox definitely does that better, but with the text at the top it also falls behind the photo if you write too much.

Any better solutions out there?
