From the developer

Spiffy Plugins's own description of WP Flow Plus, lightly tidied.

WP Flow Plus

Display attractive flow style carousel galleries with or without reflections. Each image links to either a Lightbox preview or to a URL. The Lightbox pop-up supports cycling through all the photos – left/right arrows appear when hovering over the photos.

This is a light script that uses the basic JQuery library. It will display a simple thumbnail list if Javascript is disabled in the browser.
