 * Hey there!
 * I wonder whether it is possible to navigate through the “Thickbox”-Effect by 
   using the Arrow-Keys on my keyboard instead of always clicking “next” or “prev”(
   just like using Esc to leave the thickbox).

 * Hi there,
 * It’s already set up to do so. Try using the “<” and “>” buttons. Note that you
   don’t have to hit the shift key. I’m using the thickbox effect as well and it
   seems to work for me.
 * Hope this helps.

 * Yeah, I just noticed that. Furthermore I realised, that the line “else if(keycode
   == 190)” in thickbox-pack.js contains the function to call the short keys. It
   is quite simple to add even more keys: replace the above by “else if(keycode 
   == 190 || keycode == 38 || keycode == 39 || keycode == 32 || keycode == 33)”…
   Every number is for one key (though I don’t know which one’s one… The same is
   applicable for the “previous”-function…
