Building a jQuery Image Scroller

We’re going to be building an image scroller, making use of jQuery’s excellent animation features and generally having some fun with code.

Image scrollers are of course nothing new; versions of them come out all the time. Many of them however are user-initiated; meaning that in order for the currently displayed content to change, the visitor must click a button or perform some other action.

This scroller will be different in that it will be completely autonomous and will begin scrolling once the page loads.
