Jquery preload images
the implementation of jquery photo gallery is better performed when the thumbnail is dynamiccaly generated via some magic library such as the old phpthumb. But this method doubles the amount of images to load, especially the big ones that we want to pop in on thumbnail click. And that’s where comes Ariel Flesler’s jquery preload plugin, that allows some various configuration using jquery selector to specify which images should be preloaded. Another jquery plugin takes all images from css files and preload them, can be useful on all websites that rely on background images in styles.
