Looking for specific Wordpress plugins

[Nova]

I'm building a new website and I'm looking to do a couple of things for it.

The first is, the home page is going to have pictures which you can click on. I want to make these pictures look like iPhone apps, ie curved at the edges and a shinny streak through them. Are there any program's on the Internet to do this?

Next I would like to have pages with one large image and4 small ones, the small ones need to be clickable to be enlarged on the screen. Is there a Wordpress plugin for this?

Hi Nova,

Your first question is just a simple linked image. You will just need to get the icons designed and then link them through to the appropriate page. Of course if you know any web developers then you can get something much more engaging created, however that's almost certainly your best bet. If you're keen on learning and aren't in any major rush, download Gimp (similar to Photoshop but with a stupid name) and start messing around.

In terms of having a list of images and changing the larger image depending on which is selected - there may be plugins but you will almost certainly need to customise it a bit. You may want to consider just getting Lightbox Plus; this blows up the image that you click on.

If you know exactly what you want but can't find anything to cater for it, you'll be able to find a bunch of decent developers on Elance.com who will do the job at a very competitive price. Managing the majority of people on Elance is a specialised skill though

Sounds like more custom theme changes than plugins...
