Basically what you can see at Facebook etc. If you see an image gallery and click on a photo it automatically gets you to the next one. I couldn´t find any plug-ins. Google nor the forum search really helped.

Some themes have navigation arrows on the images.

Hi Dave,

thanks for the quick answer.

So there is no such thing? That´s odd because more and more of the big websites are using that feature.

This "arrow thing" is not really what I am looking for. That´s basically the same as moving the mouse to the "next" link.

Take a look at the Siriux theme and you'll see what Dave is talking about. The arrow is just a visual queue, you can click on the right 1/2 of the image to go to the next image or the left 1/2 of the image to go to the previous image.

From your description, that's probably what you're looking for.

That was already 50% of what I was looking for. ;-)

I really liked the Siriux theme. Unfortunately, all themes except the Matrix one destroy my page layout(I am using Gallery2 inside Drupal). I guess it´s not worth all the effort.

The information is already there, it's just styling at this point. So if you know a bit of HTML and CSS you should be able to take the stuff from Siriux and port it to Matrix (probably having to change CSS class and id selectors). I'm not sure if the solution in Siriux uses any JavaScript or not.

OK and the other 50% is?
