you can create a lightbox-like effect using flash.  but, if you want your gallery to be visible outside your flash stage, you should probably just use a regular javascript version of lightbox.

you would create movieclips for the black semi-transparent background and white background, use a database (like xml) with the urlloader class to supply image path/file names and size, the loader class to load external images and display a preloader movieclip and the backgrounds and use the tween class (or a 3rd party library like tweenlite) to tween the white background and fade-in the loaded image.
