Re: helper to do a sliding animation

Having looked at a few of them. They all seem pretty much the same.
Most of them do vertical/horizontal scrolling, circular scrolling,
configurable scrolling intervals, etc.

I used jQuery Scrollable just because it was the first one I came
across. It might be a little better than some of the other scripts
since it preloads the images, but the implementation is kinda weird
(you have a really long fixed width div inside another one with
overflow set to hidden). It can also be integrated with jQuery
Mousewheel (as on the Rotten site), allowing you to scroll through the
gallery with your mousehweel. But that should be fairly easy to do
with any of the other slider scripts as well.

The bradblogging.com article is a nice little comparison of different
slideshow scripts though. Those might be more convenient if you're
trying to display images (jCarousel and Scrollable can be used as a
navigation element for things other than images).
