Because I was bored by so many pages using lightbox and it`s clones,
I wanted something fresh and Mac-like. I couldn`t find any cool alternative that would be build on top of jQuery, so the FancyBox was born. Features:
  • Automatically scales large images to fit in window
  • Adds a nice drop shadow under the zoomed item
  • Groups related items and adds navigation through them (uses preloading)
  • Can display images, inline and iframed content
  • Customizable through settings and CSS
    • Fancy single images
    Grouped images (no zooming animation, adds overlay)
    More usage examples
    Custom defined image set
    Inline content
    Iframed content
