been a while since Ive done this type of thing... My client wants a gallery of images in his page banner swapping on a loop. I wanted to make the transitions more interesting than just a fade-out/fade-in but am having trouble finding a decent tutorial/effect.

Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks in advance

If I have to create these type of things (and the client is insistant) then it has to be something that stands out in some way... so why not? Explain yourself, my good man
