Web Design - WP Help Needed - How is this image effect done?

Check out the image effect on this site: www.btbcku.com

I found that site via WooThemes.com The site is using wordpress and viewing the html I see references to:

/wp-lightbox/js/lightbox/

How can I create this effect? Is this as simple as installing the Lightbox2 plugin or is there more to it than that? I'd appreciate learning the steps to getting this effect working on a wordpress blog. It's an impressive visual effect.

I never focused my energy on image transitions in wordpress. This effect is making me reconsider that point of view.

Any assistance would be appreciated!

PS: Now that I right click the image I see it's playing in flash. Now I'm really confused. Was this just an anim created with flash and not lightbox?

    It's called Piecemaker (V2 is the current version by the looks of it). Made by a crowd called Modularweb and it's cool! Nice find.

    It's open source and free to download and there is a free wordpress plugin.

    This question belongs in the Website forum: Website Design , not the main discussion forum.

    It is a flash banner.
