I believed jQuery had it, but now I see the lightbox of jQuery isn't the actual cool one.

The site you linked is using MooTools and the FancyZoom plugin, so if you're on jQuery you'll have to go with a close equivalent.


I think you're talking about FancyBox by the description, but I'm not 100% clear.

Not a centered one, but SimpleModal also has an OS X look and feel, check it out here.

Almost...FancyBox looks pretty similar, but it doesn't zoom out from the image and back into it. It just appears and hits the eye with an hard punch. The cool one was zooming from the image that was clicked up to the max size, and then back to that image. Damn cool effect... I think FancyZoom does the trick! :) although it seems to not make the background black... Not sure if that's the original one. But looks good! thanks!
