Interesting thing on some websites.

Sorry for stupid title, but i didnt know anything better to write there

Question is:

I have seen this thing more often in webpages that sell premade logos.
When i click on logo, then everything else in that webpage is going dark/grey and then logo gets bigger. Its like some kind of flash window or something that is opening then. How is that kind of thing made and why is it useful?

I dont know is it allowed to put link here, becouse then it would be like advertiseing.

That's known as a Lightbox . Just google lightbox for various solutions to achieve that effect (I don't want to link to a particular one, as I've only used lightnoxes w/Joomla, not standalone.)

You can also do this through ajax/flash/javascript based 'gallery' scripts

Check out hotscripts or similar, you'll get tons of available scripts

good luck

They have afew nice ones with that using javascript.

most are only image galleries but probably could be easily edited or your site built around it.
