Does anybody use this on their website?

I'm trying to use it on my next site, but when I try to view the set of images, it displays the last image in the group first.

Any known fixes?

Sorry, not game related =\

I had it on my old site. I just use a deviantart page now (cuz im cheap). Don't you have to number the images or something like #1, #2... It's been awhile since I've messed with it...

The website doesn't mention anything about the naming convention. The groups you have to number accordingly but not images apparently...

hmm, update.

I fixed the order problem, but now it repeats the last picture 8 times. even though its not in the code to do so. lol.

so instead of having 8 pictures. i have 16, and the last 8 are repeated.

Yuck, i hate lightbox myself and so do many others if you look in the portfolio threads. It's slow and you can't tab the images.

Hells no, I hate Lightbox, plain HTML is better.
IMHO Lightbox is slow and prevents easy saving of images for reference or future contact.

Not to necro a thread, but I figure it's better than creating a new thread with an existing topic.

Does lightbox really bother people? I've seen some sites where lightbox totally breaks the browser, but I've seen some that work really well. It seems to be a case to case situation, so I was just wondering if lightbox was starting to become a dying trend.
