I'd love to see additional jQuery or HTML5 options added to the picturebox choices. The animated-CSS option is great. What about a slider as well as other transition options? A filter option would be great as well, especially for the Ecommerce sites, but that may require a database.

Do you have any particular galleries that you'd like to see added?

We have a list that we'd like to add. Your's might be on the list already.

Here's a few I really like, just not sure how they could be implemented. I'll leave that up to the SG geniuses!

http://www.slidedeck.com - Really cool slider with lots of cool ways to use it. A great space saver.

http://razorjack.net/quicksand - This kind of gallery filter and sort would be amazing to have. Especially for Ecommerce sites.

http://www.coopersfurniturenc.com/ - Not sure what plugin was used on this site we built, but just a simple horizontal or vertical slider would be great to have. Just like the panelsheet Sliding CSS.

http://www.webdesignshock.com/showcase/best-jquery-effects/ - Full of great ones.

Sweet more galleries!! Sitegrinder is bogglingly robust. All I would like is a content type slider that would allow pngs and galleries to move with it. Also the ability to make a one page porfolio with that smooth scroll transition when you click the nav button.

I just came across this one that would be perfect for SG integration.

It's jQuery driven gallery with a few different transition effects and optional captions. Something like this would be very valuable for me.

Boy I wish we incorporate all of these! We will be adding support for more over time.

In the meantime many of these can be added using xmedia.

Also the SG gallery system is based on javascript "plug-ins" so if you have a hot-shot javascript programmer you can add these yourself right into the SG-managed gallery system without too much effort.
