Cross Browser Custom Scrollbars
If you want to replace the ugly default OS scrollbars fixed width and/or height boxes in your CSS layout with custom scrollbars, fleXcroll is definitely the way to go. I also tried jScrollPane, but found fleXcroll simpler to implement. Also, Safari 3.1 did some very strange things with jScrollPane - the scrollbar placement was off, and the overflow: auto; property seemed to be ignored. (This was one of the most compelling reasons for me to go with fleXcroll - the website project I am using this for has a fairly high percentage of Mac users.)

Rounded Images using JavaScript
SitePoint has an article on how to use JavaScript to create rounded corners for website content images. I’ve noticed that Burda uses this on their website for their gallery images. Neat little trick that can help not only minimize time spent in Photoshop/Fireworks, but also help preserve as much of the original content as possible for use in future redesigns.
