Using mootools (don’t worry, a moo.fx and prototype.lite.js version is still available), this javascript slideshow system allows you to have a simple and smooth (cross-fading…) image slideshows and/or showcases on your website.

For more info, see the v1.0 announcement

What’s new in version 2 ?
While maintaining nearly the same installation steps, a major rethinking of the internal architecture has been done in this version.
Now, what changed exactly ?

• All the code is now wrapped in objects. In other words, you can now add more than one slideshow to the same webpage.
• JonDesign’s SmoothSlideshow now center images in the viewport. This way you can use different image ratio in the same slideshow.
• JDSS now uses mootools instead of moo.fx and prototype.lite.js (but don’t worry, there is still a version using moo.fx available ;-))
• Some graphical changes (yeah everyone wants to look cool :-))
• And last but not least, a lot of bugfixes.

Where can I find it and how to install it ?
