How can create a very simple gallery/slideshow for my own website that is similar to the one on the website I linked to?

I have done many searches on youtube and google and read forums about this but I can't figure it out. All I get is company websites trying to sell me software. I just want it very basic like this one.

I'm not that smart about web design and thought maybe some of you could help me out.

and I should have added if you just have links to somewhere where I can find this information that would be fine as well.

Seems like you could write your own fairly simply with mootools. I would think it would just be a matter of using http://demos.mootools.net/Request.HTML# with some http://demos.mootools.net/Fx.Slide

I would recommand checking out JQuery It's a js libaray and has plugins for slideshows etc. Oh and it's completely free
