JQuery Scrollers

All of these are amazing but in demos the scrollbars seem to have jerky behaviour when you use it like a normal scrollbar. They look great when easing to and from certain points, but arent as smooth as the browser default scroller when you drag it like a normal scroller. Still, I like that the jscrollpane degrades to a normal scrollbar when people have javascript turned off.

Replaces ugly vertical scrollbars with your own pretty version. Also has easing etc.

The horizontal version of a fancy scroll bar.

this is another option, a step carousel. buttons step though the pics in the pane. can also have a got to first andlast button to see a sexy eased sliding animation

wow this is pretty extreme- scrolling in both vertical and horizontal. love the bouncy easing example. its very flash like.

Vertical and horizontal again. Can really see the use of this as it is shown in demo being for menus and sub menus, vertical and horizontal planes...
