[SOLVED] Image Gallery Module?

Can anyone recommend me an image gallery module? I am looking for something that would display thumbnails below/next to the larger image which changes depending on which thumbnail is clicked. Having an image description option would be great too.
If there is not a module with this sort of functionality, can someone recommend a module?

There are many different image galleries available - Album and Gallery are available via the module manager and are quite flexible and include different lightbox types of displays as well as just showing the image cleanly. There are a few more, I looked once but its been a while. I'm currently playing with Album and Gallery both.

The template
cmotion-image-gallery of the Album module does what you ask. Little thumbnails and one large image on the same page.
There are
three album modules at the moment.
But I would not try to use Album thought, its outdated...
Gallery and
NeoGallery are the best and well maintained modules to use at the moment. (NeoGallery is depending on the Thumbnails module.)
Both modules come with diff. templates, you have to try what template you like the best.

unfortunately I like album a little more than gallery. For what I'm trying to do - though I'm torn between both of them. There is also a flash gallery that is also a bit outdated, I looked at that back at ver 1.4.x of CMS/MS.
