Recently for a client (Sophie Bridal Couture) I was asked to integrate a Carousel/image gallery into the webpage. After a little bit of searching online I found this solution: Pikachooese.
Pikachoose is an exceptionally simple to integrate image gallery/carousel, and as drupal 6 already integrates Jquery, adding it in is a breeze! Simply place the files in your theme directory, and then reference them in the head of your page.tpl.php.
When styling node.tpl.php to include them, simply take the foreach loop that typically renders the images, put it inside of a UL with the appropriate ID (be sure the jquery address the proper ID). Then render each item as an image (be sure to get the proper variable to do this) inside an LI. Pull from the proper initial image cache to setup the size. You can also change variables to adjust the size.
Done properly, this makes the carousel a breeze to work with. Not only is adding and removing pictures a breeze, re-organizing them is as simple as can be (at least in D6). Overall this integration is about as easy as it gets, and it can create some really cool image galleries!
