This is another small display issue that seems to only show up in FireFox 
Win/Mac.

When using the modal to display a series of hidden divs or even a gallery 
of images, it appears that during the transition from one div/image to the 
next, both DOM elements are momentarily visible. If there is a small 
amount of content on the page and the visibility of both DOM elements 
exceed the current window height, FireFox automatically displays a 
vertical (and sometimes horizontal) scrollbar. This momentarily shifts all 
page content over by size of the scrollbars. This happens very quickly, 
and of course, the previous div/img is hidden, but the transition is very 
jarring.

You can see an example here: http://downloads.slingmedia.com/get/sp-win-
us.html. Size your Firefox browser window large enough so there are no 
scrollbars; click on the Screenshots tab; and click through the image 
gallery.

You can also see this behavior on your demo page when viewing the Gallery 
sample. Just watch the scrollbar handle as you click through the images.

I know this is a small thing, but I'm wondering if it is related to the 
order of hiding/showing elements -- perhaps the order could be switched so 
that two elements are never visible at the same time.

Sorry, I'm little late.
I saw your issue a while ago. I already tried to fix it without success...

I don't have at any times 2 images shown, so I don't know where come from the problem.
It looks like it comes from the animation as this issue doesn't occur when using the
noAnim js file.

I'll come back to it when I have time.

Good news, I tested many times in Firefox 3 RC2 and it looks like it doesn't occur
anymore.

As this bug is fixed in Firefox 3, it won't be fixed.
The tranfer time for Firefox is enough quick to let us do that.
