One more thing--almost forgot. Since photos can of course take a
while to download, it's good to preload them. I'm not sure if this
is correct, but I think Lightbox 2 preloads 1 image, but Thickbox
doesn't preload any.

The other difference is that Thickbox resizes images to fit the
screen + buffer size. While this is good in many situations, it
often isn't desirable for displaying photos, where you typically
want users to see the original photo quality. Lightbox 2 has the
animated size transitions, and displays photos full size. So
having something like Litebox which could be more suited to photo
galleries than Thickbox is a good thing to have.

As far as as can see, the jQuery Thickbox does everything the others
do. I use it here:

What am I missing?
The default thickbox implementation doesn't have animated sizing
of the images. They just pop up there with no transition from one
to the next.
