Super-Sweet jQuery Slider
I love jQuery. Hard. I’m not as good at it as I probably should be – I bang my head against the wall over jQuery issues more often than Internet Explorer issues, it seems – but it can do some really nifty things.
Right now, I’m working on a minor redesign of our website. I say minor because the colors and structure will remain the same, while the content area – and possibly the back end – will be changing. I wanted to incorporate a bit of flashiness (not capital-F Flashiness!) into our portfolio, so I started looking around at all the jQuery slideshows, scrollers, carousels, and galleries out there. I wanted something lightweight and customizable – both things that jQuery excels at – and something that wouldn’t scream “this site was designed in 2010″.
I found a *fantastic* little jQuery plugin called Tiny Carousel. It works off an unordered list, as most sliders/carousels do, and has a good amount of options for such a wee little plugin (just over 2 kb!). Bonus? It works (and looks fantastic) on my phone.
Bottom line: if you’re looking for a kick-ass jQuery Carousel plugin, check out Tiny Carousel.
