Simple jQuery Gallery Plugin: bxGallery

bxGallery is a lightweight jQuery plugin for creating image galleries with thumbnails.

It requires images to be defined within an unordered list & converts them to a gallery with several options like:

• max width/height of images (will resize maintaining aspect ratio)
• thumbnail width & if it will be cropped to create a perfect square
• opacity of thumbnails
• loading text & image

The plugin also has an option for setting the position of the thumbnails (top-bottom-right-left).
