/*
    imageFader v1.0b

    This is a jQuery plugin that i've write myself,
    by reading some tutorials at some different webpages.

    Basically this plugin creates a slideshow by taking
    the choosen images, and stack them on top of each other,
    and just slowly set the opacity to 0.
    
    But notice that this is only a beta, so some errors
    might occure.
