jQuery image rotator plugin

Question

Hello,

I am looking for a suggestion on which jquery plugin will achieve what I want.

Basically I want to have 5 images on the page which change (fade in/out) automatically and when clicked on the image it goes to a page relative to the image.

For example: http://www.lorigrahamdesign.com/index.php?

In the page above there are images that fade/in/out automatically and there is a difference of some time so the transition looks good.

What is the best way to achieve this using jquery?

Answer 1

While not fading, it does do sliding and is really cool and incredibly easy to use and get working:

or

Answer 3

You could take a look at this as well: jQuery Tools

Since there are much configuration options it should be easy to add some appear-effects.

Answer 4

If you are open to something outside of jquery, you may want to look at this mootools plug-in. slideshow

Answer 5

Check out this plugin. It's a little different from your example, but maybe you like it.
