Gallery in Wordpress that displays images from url links?

I'd like to have a gallery that displays images from image source links, such as:
<img src="http://sourcesite.com/images/such-and-such.gif">

The only galleries I can find display only images you've loaded that end up in your image library.

I would want it to display rows of thumbnails, and when you click on one, it shows in the main image area on the same page at a specified size. It would be great, too, if the user had the option of clicking a 'next' or 'previous' button to surf them that way, instead of clicking the thumbnails.

I understand, however, in this case, the source is content we pay for and they encourage displaying it this way (cagle cartoons).

I figured out how to do it in a blog, using html. This way, it shows images one after the other on the page. However, I'd still like to do it in a gallery format, if possible. It could be on a static page, if I could format it in php.

What plugin is that?
That's not a plugin, that's part of WordPress.

However, that's not going to do what you want. That's simply going to copy the image from the URL and put it in your Media Library.
Ok, well I guess there is no plugin to solve my problem, unless anyone knows of one...
