<p>This wordpress plugin allows visitors to browse posts or pages by their images, displayed randomly on an infinitely scrollable Image Wall. The images link back to the post or page on which they are attached.</p>
<p>Images are powerful. They catch our attention like nothing else. You probably use them in your blog posts to anchor the fickle attention span of today’s readers. Display all these great images on a nice looking page, and your visitors will browse for a while, captivated. Hopefully, one image will stand out for whatever reason and compel the visitor to click it to find out more. And just like that, some old blog post you thought buried by the sands of time has gotten another view, thanks to your Image Wall.</p>
<p>You can see the plugin in action on my own <a href="http://www.themodernnomad.com/image-wall/#utm_campaign=Image_Wall&utm_source=wordpress&utm_medium=website&utm_content=description" rel="nofollow ugc">Image Wall</a> and the full plugin documentation on the <a href="http://www.themodernnomad.com/image-wall-plugin/#utm_campaign=Image_Wall&utm_source=wordpress&utm_medium=website&utm_content=description" rel="nofollow ugc">Image Wall Plugin page</a>.</p>

<p>FancyBox Gallery integrates the FancyBox jQuery plugin into the WordPress<br />
gallery functionality. Simply use the gallery shortcode to display<br />
thumbnails in your posts with the option to link directly to the images (not<br />
the attachment template), and the plugin handles the rest. You get nice<br />
popups for the larger sized images, scaled to fit in the browser window,<br />
with a nice overlay effect.</p>
<h4>Features:</h4>
<ul>
<li>Automatically scales large images to fit in window</li>
<li>Adds a nice drop shadow under the zoomed item</li>
<li>Groups related items and adds navigation through them (uses preloading)</li>
</ul>
<p>FancyBox jQuery features, not yet implemented in the WordPress plugin:</p>
<ul>
<li>Can display images, inline and iframed content</li>
<li>Customizable through settings and CSS</li>
</ul>
<h3>ToDo</h3>
<ul>
<li>Add a settings screen. Allow control of FancyBox display options.</li>
<li>Let user set their own CSS selector, instead of assuming the standard<br />
WordPress shortcode.</li>
</ul>
