An image gallery is part of the modern web 2.0 design. There are many ways to show it. For eg: thumbnail listing of images – clicking will show the corresponding large image in an overlay div – like lightbox. The other method is, list images inline – no popups.

Here I’ve listed 10 jQuery plugins which can be used for this type of gallery. All these plugins can show images with some transition effects. I didn’t consider lightbox like (popup) scripts. But you may be interested in the following articles.
Galleria

Galleria is a javascript image gallery written in jQuery. It loads the images one by one from an unordered list and displays thumbnails when each image is loaded. It will create thumbnails for you if you choose so, scaled or unscaled, centered and cropped inside a fixed thumbnail box defined by CSS.
The core of Galleria lies in it’s smart preloading behaviour, snappiness and the fresh absence of obtrusive design elements. Use it as a foundation for your custom styled image gallery.
