Let's add a semi-transparent effect to the thumbnails, and each thumbnail will get back to its full opacity when hovered over.
This can be easily implemented via the two built-in CSS class:
thumb and
thumb-on:
#thumbs .thumb img{ opacity:0.6;filter:alpha(opacity:60); }
#thumbs .thumb-on img{ opacity:1;filter:alpha(opacity:100);}
That's all there is to it.
If there are many thumbnails and the containing block does not have enough room to show them, you can make the slider work together with our jQuery Slider. See jQuery Slideshow.
