Gallery.css

Gallery.css is all CSS. Think: Simple, maintainable and understandable galleries without the use of Javascript.

What? No script!? Why? — Gallery css started as an experiment to build interactive, fluid componentry without the need for jQuery, or a jQuery carousel script. Use this library, or don't — either way, hopefully you'll learn from the techniques used within.
