Great Gallery for pictures! The Helpforum of Artetics is really great with good help and quick answers. Thanks
Spent the $20 to get a download link. Should have read the forum first... many people never get the software they purchased until they post to the forums. Unfortunately now, I can't register on the forums, because it says I'm already registered. But when I log in, it says I don't have an account. Plugin is probably awesome, but be up front that it can take a long time (days?) to get the software after you pay.

Thank you for your review.
The sales system is improved now. We try to send the download link as soon as we receive the order. However some email providers may consider email as spam so customers may want to check their junk email as well.
We are always ready to support and send the extension by email - feel free to contact us in case of any issues.
This plugin was exactly what we needed.
Normal easy installation as typical J!.
You can easily call the plugin within your articles.
The graphics and animations are excellent... very very professional looking.
I gave it 5 stars, and I would give it 2 more if I could because of the developers.
I posted on their forums for an additional feature request, and within days it was implemented!!
The new version was sent to me via eMail and it worked perfectly right out of the box.
Developers are always active and easy to contact.
Thanks Artetics! =)

Good plugin. Works fine also in many browsers! Easy configuration.
Only negative thing: I'm showing multiple galleries on 1 page. Showing 1 single image per gallery and when clicking on the pic the slideshow starts. I really hope they can change the way it loads. Because wright now, all pictures are loaded when opening the page. This way it takes pretty long before page is ready to be seen.
For the rest, good one. But to be honest, when paying 20 dollars it must be working!

Thank you for the review. This is fixed in the latest version of extension.
Tried several lightbox extensions over the last two weeks, Art Sexy Lightbox is the first that actually has the flexibility and configurability I needed.
First class support too, did expect to get support within minutes and such detailed responses.
Excellent work guys, great extension and support.

I loved the look & feel of this product from the start. It just behaves so nicely that you continue clicking the thumbnails.
It's easy to use, you can tune behaviour exactly the way you like.
BUT, what really surprised me...
We requested an additional feature, the team had it available within 48 hours after requesting it...!!!
There is no question that price/quality ratio is amazingly good! with this lightbox you get a lot of bang for your buck!!!

This product really looks sharp and is relatively easy to install and configure - even for a newbie like me.
I did find it a little difficult to try to get thumbnails exactly how I wanted them, but after leaving a note on the forum, tech support emailed me directly and helped me solve my problems. Now I have a gallery that looks great and works just how I need it.
thanks!

Sensational script and fine attendance (service activity). I advice cordially. Greetings!
I used this application on my website and it looks fantastic. I even had someone email me asking where I had got it from. The team were very helpful and even assisted in ensuring my site was set-up correctly to display the light box.
Looks fantastic and the team at Artetics were great to deal with.
Thank you..!

in my opinion, this is the prettiest lightbox there is for joomla.
installation and usage are very simple (just point to a directory or flickr-account, and you have a gallery)
initially superfish-menu and artsexy lightbox didn't like each other, but developer support was lightning-fast and very helpful and provided me with a patched version -- so i can wholeheartedly recommend this extension

This extension is a must - works very well and is suitable for many websites for it has a simple design and it fits every layout.
Also it is versatile for it can contain what ever type of contents you like!
Furthermore I would like to highlight the quick and effective support via their forum and e-mail - in 1 hour I had all my questions answered and code fixed.
Worth every euro.
Thank you Artetics team :)

I don't normally like to pay for extensions, but will happily do so when it means they work easily.
I had some trouble getting this set-up initially, but once I figured things out, and got some help from the developer on the forums (who replied in like 2 hours!) I was set to go. So easy to use, looks clean and professional, and I feel confident that if I have any future troubles they'll be take care of quickly. Thanks!

As you can read in the other reviews, this is one of the nicest lightbox plugins I have seen. Installing is fast without any problems.
I was missing a download link in the opened picture and requested it. In only a view hours I got an updated version! Top service! Thanks a lot!

I searched long and hard for the perfect flickr plugin and my search ended when I found ArtSexyLightbox. When I purchased the plugin it did not support photo display from photosets but when I made an inquiry about photoset support, they said they would be implementing it in a few days. A week later it was supported. I had some customization questions and support took care of them within 24 hours. For $20, the plugin is worth every penny and the support is top notch. You will not be disappointed.
