Thanks i'll try that and report back.
I want to use such function as an option for my slideViewer plugin
wich basically creates a way to slide a set of images contained in an
unordered list.
Since the list is static (the first one is the first you see in the
gallery) i thought it would be nice to let the user randomize the list
so the order is never the same.
I'm working on the new version of slideViewer and i would like to let
it fade too, not only slide.
this is the page with the "old" attempt.
