Looking for Post Gallery/Content slider plugin

[hivehealthmedia]

Hi,

No clue how to properly describe this, but I'm looking for a gallery type plugin with text.  A perfect example is found on Mac life:

(scroll down to top 5 skype alternatives)

What plugin are they using or is this custom?

Is there another plugin that you can use for the same effect?

Note, I'm looking for a plugin for gallery posts not a front page slider or simple image gallery.

AskMen seems to have a similar type of plugin though I'm guessing theirs is custom.

 

thanks!

Hi there,  that particular website is built with Drupal and my guess is that the slider is a Drupal thing. It is called "Future US" which seems like a Drupal associated thing from a quick Google search. I don't know Drupal so not sure.

I haven't seen a slider like that with text that seems to have a flexible height to contain it. It is very nice and stylish. Keep looking.

Would something like this work:

It's not a plug-in - it's a tutorial on adding text to featured images.

As @alirat stated, their site is made from Drupal and the slider is called GalleryFormatter - http://drupal.org/project/galleryformatter. You can look at Codecanyon.net for something similar to this.

I decided to go back through my WordPress Plugin Bookmarks because I remembered there was a similar slider that was coded to work like the one on Yahoo.com. Here it is. Maybe this will work for you and you can customize the CSS - http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/yslider/. Check out the demo.
