jCarousel is a jQuery plugin used widely for controlling list of items (both images, videos or text) in horizontal or vertical order. The items can be scrolled back and forth with animation. The carousel can be used either as image scroller or textscroller. It can be controlled externally with both JavaScript and AJAX and of course php. So it's a smart coded plugin that can be altered with all possible jquery functions. Its created by Jan Sorgalla and you can see several versions of here by visiting Sorgalla' website. To keep things simple we have filtered the code, compressed it and made it as small as possible. You can easily customize it and install it on your BlogSpot blogs with just a single copy and paste of the code we would share today. You can use the same code to install it on any blogging platform may it be Joomla, wordpress or even a Static HTML website. Lets get to work now:
Why use it?
You can use it to showcase your photos, ebooks, icons, products, or even thumbnails of your featured posts. So it serves multi-purpose, it can be used as a featured post widget and also as a scrolling image gallery. You can add it on your sidebar, header, post body, footer, almost anywhere you want. The installation has been made extremely easy. All it aims is at increasing pageviews and page impressions.
Installation
We are sharing here only the horizontal style though these images can be scolled in vertical direction too. You can create that easily if you understand this tutorial.

<ul id="mycarousel" class="jcarousel-skin-tango">
<li><a href="#"><img src="IMAGE LINK" width="75" height="75" alt="Description" /></a></li>
<li><a href="#"><img src="IMAGE LINK" width="75" height="75" alt="Description" /></a></li>
<li><a href="#"><img src="IMAGE LINK" width="75" height="75" alt="Description" /></a></li>
<li><a href="#"><img src="IMAGE LINK" width="75" height="75" alt="Description" /></a></li>
<li><a href="#"><img src="IMAGE LINK" width="75" height="75" alt="Description" /></a></li>
</ul>
- Replace IMAGE LINK with the image URL of your thumbnail image.
- Replace Description with at most a three-word description of the image so that search engine robots could crawl your image well.
- Clicking an image will take user to the desired page. Replace # with that Page URL for each image.
- To change the widget width edit width:425px;
- To change the image clips width (Combined length of all images) edit width:425px;
To add an extra image just repeat this code:
<li><a href="#"><img src="IMAGE LINK" width="75" height="75" alt="Description" /></a></li>5. Save the widget and you are all done!
Visit your blog to see it working just perfectly. :) To control where to show and hide the image scroller please read:
