We usually put some ads on our website or web application. We need a system to display different campaigns and monitor the performance of campaigns. Openads is the best open source ads management tool I have even seen. Tens of thousands of websites are using Openads to make money from online advertising.
Ads can come in all sorts of formats from images to movies, flash to popups and everything in between. Openads administrative interface lets you choose to enable or disable a campaign at any time.
Openads lets you run campaigns from many advertisers at the same time by loading ad program tags into Openads, e.g. Google Adsense, Double Click and Valueclick Media,etc.
Requirements: Any Web Server with PHP 4.4.2+,

Sometime, we need a way to show one or a set of images in a more elegant way. Lightbox is a simple, unobtrusive script used to overlay images on the web pages. It is extremely easy to setup and works on all modern browsers. The best thing of it is that if you have a set of images, the script will preload all images before you clicked to the next image. So that you do not have to wait for loading everytime you click to the next image.
* Lightbox uses the Prototype Framework and Scriptaculous Effects Library.
Requirements: Any Modern Browsers
