If there is such an prog' that will enlarge when the slide is clicked I'd be a really happy bunny

I'm wondering if you found dynamicdrive.com yet? I just tried getting the link for you but it's acting kinda weird. You can do a search for it ("dynamicdrive") and you'll get there. It's one of my favorite sites for scripts like the one you describe.
Unfortunately, my site is not designed for something like that (rather, I didn't design my site for something like that), but I have a great time on the Dynamic Drive site. One can dream, can't one? I've downloaded many scripts, but have only been able to use a fraction on my web site http://www.inevitableresources.com (which has to be refreshed, so don't cringe if you visit - I'm up the proverbial creek because I had to switch PC's in an emergency).
I hope you find an enlarging script for your site at Dynamic Drive. I just took a quick look at your site and my only suggestion (at this late date) would be that you use a lighter shade background behind your text.
Good luck!

Corey, I also enjoy visiting the Javascript.com website, too - I've downloaded just as may scripts (for my future dream website) as I have for Dynamic.
I had suggested Dynamic because I thought it would be easier for our friend to locate a script, the Java site is "huge" - it's almost like reading a dictionary, you know, like, when you look up a word and then you discover other new words, and so on, and so on. I already had bookmarks on the sites you suggested. They're all great.

Geday thepainter,
K - ive looked at and tried heaps of these suckers.
Many are just toooo damn hard to set up as good as they may be - you nned to be a programmer no matter how easy they say it is :)
Dynamicdrive for simple scripts of all kinds of simple slide shows - theyre good and work.
For a Gallery - urrrr - Im using SPGM, a JS system --see my site :)
Easy to set up as either flat file or database if you have no mysql. It was ok to setup -well kinda easy. You can set heaps of parameters and choos the popup size up to full screen. There are heaps of galleries - but tis a minefield of bodgy jobs.
Gallery is good but have you tried to understand that installation? - cheez.
Hope that helps.
Keep well.
