I’m looking for a flash (or AJAX) banner rotator for a project I’m working on. Something like this. Does anyone know of anything like that that is either free or open source?

There are a number of ‘em. Here are two:
http://drupal.org/project/viewscarousel
http://sorgalla.com/projects/jcarousel/
Googling for carousel will find you lots more.
Closer, but I need something where each image/slide takes up the entire space; like in the example I linked to.

I’ve been able to bend this jquery plugin to do whatever I need. Worth checking out:
http://malsup.com/jquery/cycle/
I’m pretty sure you can resize the views carousel module to any size you would like. See the maintainers video here: http://mustardseedmedia.com/podcast
Hope this helps!
Maybe check out this also: http://drupal.org/project/ddblock
or quicktabs… I think that rotates also.
I’ve found nothing better than jquery’s innerfade

views rotator?

I agree with the recommendation for jquery cycle, its quite flexible with configuration and navigation. Using that and the nodequeue module, I’ve built some decent jquery rotators.

Call me another vote for the jQuery cycle plugin. Highly awesome, very flexible, well-maintained. I’ve been doing a fair bit of work with it recently. Expect a module or two to be released at the end of the project.
I use http://drupal.org/project/swftools particularly ImageRotator in my projects.

JQuery tabs can do the trick
Check out the Marinelli theme– comes with a banner rotator. You just drop images into a folder. I believe it can either rotate on time or as you travel about the site (page refreshes).
