I'm in the process of revamping my entire site to a completely new look -- current one is outdated and old in many ways. However, I ran into a snag...how to display artworks/photographs nicely.

What are your thoughts design-wise on the best, professional way to present artworks/photographs?

Right now, what I have is a web page with thumbnails linked to a javascript that opens a new window of a specific size showing the full image when a thumbnail is clicked. I'm tired of it and wonder if I should use something like a sliding bar at the bottom with thumbnails that display the chosen image above it on the same web page?

Examples of sites you know that displays a gallery of images nicely, are useful.

Thanks for your opinions.

And have a nice July 4th weekend. I'm working anyway.
