Thickbox - For Image Display and Slideshows

One of my clients asked me to create an 'image of the week' page for them using whatever method I thought looked and worked best. I remembered seeing the JavaScript/Ajax tool Thickbox. This is another JavaScript/Ajax tool, it functions nearly identically but for my purposes this one was the better choice because it doesn't break on large images.

Well, let me clarify - Thickbox is set by default to resize images larger than the current browser window. I tried changing this in the code, but if you don't use it you can't scroll up or down to see the rest of the image. So

I put the code back to its original state and showed the result to my client. He'd originally wanted to show 800px images, too big for Firefox/Opera if I used Lightbox JS and forcing a resize in Thickbox. But he was okay with the resizing and is now happy with the results.
