WordPress Lightbox Made Easy

I wasn’t very happy with how images were handled on krypted.com. Which is why I added a new plugin, http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-jquery-lightbox to provide more of a lightbox feel when you click on my images.


Many of my images are pretty large, so I make them a little smaller on the site so they fit well on the page. Now, when you click on images on the site, it greys the rest of the page and zooms in on the image. I’ve tinkered with a lot of lightbox plugins, but this one makes me happy. You just install and activate and viola, you’re done. It doesn’t get a lot easier than this and it’s a much better way than the default method for handling images in WordPress.
