Hi Everyone. I want to implement Lightbox 2 JS (http://www.huddletogether.com/projects/lightbox2/) on my WordPress-based blog. (http://www.kevinschaefer.net/blog) I found a few things on google but I'm pretty clueless.
Ultimately, I want to replace all the pics I post with a thumbnail, which will be clickable and will launch the Lightbox of that pic. I'm not sure where to start, any help?
Thanks

Hi,
I'm making a lightbox wordpress plugin for a client, maybe I'll release it under the GPL:)

I'm using this plugin: Stimuli.ca Lightbox 2 plug-in (http://www.stimuli.ca/lightbox)
Works much better than others I've tried. andy89's might be good, too. :)

I tried Andy's beta, it worked but the "close" button was all the way on the other side of the page. I'm sure it will work when it is out of beta, but atleast it somewhat worked.. unlike all the other WordPress plugins I've com across.
Rower_CPU's link was great. I tried it out and every thing works great.
Thanks..!
