SV Slider is a script to make it easy for you to build a custom slideshow, be it a featured content slideshow or just an image gallery. The Idea behind it is that you create the html/css to structure the slideshows look/feel the way you want and use the script to add functionality and control it. It is an incredibly small script at just 3.6kb(4.5 non-minified) and features 6 types of transitions between slides. There are 5 pages of pre-built examples with a total of 10 pre-built examples to look through.
NOTE * I know it says it requires jquery but that is only because this site forces you to choose a third party library. This script is completely stand alone and has no dependencies.

I’d be inclined to allow with you here. Which is not something I typically do! I love reading a post that will make people think. Also, thanks for allowing me to speak my mind!
