Lets say I let the customer upload up to 5 pictures. I'm looking for a good way to let visitors see the images one by one.
I've seen some.. where there are thumbnails on the side/bottom (that looks like a vertical/horizontal film strip) and the default picture is the large one displayed. And viewers can click into others to show those pictures.
This could possibly be an AJAX solution. I just couldn't come up with the right keywords to Google this custom Web component. Perhaps it is "photo gallery". But I would be more interested to know what solutions developers here use for their site.
Perhaps lightbox is the keyword you're looking for: http://www.google.com/search?q=lightbox
