Unfortunately both are unusable to a degree.  While yours uses table  
for layout, which I avoid like the plague and thickbox has hardcoded  
javascript values for getting at data, both of you suffer from  
requiring control of the body tag.  I often in design separate html  
and body from each other in CSS to achieve centering the body of  
content without additional divs.

While I agree thickbox is a bit too specific for picture content,  
there are other plugins which do the same.  What I'd prefer to see  
from plugin authors is more generic, generalized functionality that  
then can be combined.

For example a "disable" plugin which makes a div fill the window over  
all of the other content.  This could be used for Window and  
Thickbox.  Then a more xhtml/css centric window plugin, and on top of  
that, picture based lightbox/thickbox plugins.

And that was my $0.02.  Thanks for your contributions.
