[jQuery] What would you do? Cycling images


I've seen a few plugins for this already, but none of them seem to do
what I need. I also don't want to use any of these plugins that do far
more than I need. I suppose I prefer a bit of simplicity.
Basically, I have a handful of images that I need to cycle through
every few seconds; and once finished, it should start over again. I
also want to have controls that allow the user to go to the next,
previous, and pause/play the cycle. Since this will vary based on the
page, I'd like to have some dynamic control, perhaps deciding which
images to cycle through based upon an array of classes (where each
class has a different background image).
Usually I do pretty well with this sort of thing, but I'm just having
a pretty bad day. I can't wrap my head around how I need to approach
this- any suggestions or tips?
Thanks!
