Nobody uses javascript to pop open a new window with an enlarged version of an image anymore, we now use Modal Windows. But with so many options out there, which one should you use? This usually comes down to your personal preference. I decided to open up a new poll to see what other website designers / developers are using these days for Modal Windows “lightboxes” for opening up images on a web page. After 150 votes I’m closing the poll, here are the results:

1. FancyBox

2. Lightbox 2

3. Colorbox

4. Other

5. prettyPhoto

  • Lightbox 2 (25%, 38 Votes)
  • Colorbox (13%, 19 Votes)
  • Other (8%, 12 Votes)

Total Voters: 150
