They both work.. When ckosloff and I tested the current version of IH2, he tested Zen Lightbox, I tested Fual Slimbox with IH2.. I personally chose Fual Slimbox because of this:
At only 30kb Slimbox is a much smaller download than than Lightbox which weights in at over 100Kb. Since JS tends not to be cached so well by browsers this offers genuine speed increases to users. In addition it is powered by Mootools effects, making it much more customisable than Lightbox.
Never have had any issue with Fual Slimbox.. So that's my recommendation.. In the IH2 readme, you notice we took no position on which lightbox module to use either since we found both tools worked with IH2. and based on the respective authors of these lightbox modules, it appears that both were written specifically to work WITH IH2..
