If I understand correctly. To install this module properly the default image for UC is to be turned off and the images from this module will be displayed instead. The default UC image is compatible with the Thickbox module. I made a small hack to the uc_option_image.js file so that it changed the default image from UC and allowed for ThickBox to work properly, but I am hitting a wall in that I have the file system set to private images AND when logged out, I am not able to see the images with the direct url to the option image.

So I think there are 2 ways to make it more compatible. One is to add some more information to the $data object in uc_option_image that will have the address for larger images for use in thickbox and then add some js code that will get thickbox to work in the broswer if it's enabled and not work if it's not enabled.

Don't know about lightbox, greybox or any of the other ones that work similar to Thickbox, but Thickbox is recommend in the UC installation guide.

Thickbox is terrible IMO, and to be honest I would not directly support one, however support for all would be very simple since its just javascript, but as you mentioned a theme override would be necessary to provide the proper URI to the larger version if that is the effect you are going for.

The 5.x version is no longer being supported for this module. We are cleaning up the 6.x version and preparing for the 7.x version.
