I'm wondering if there is a free script or easy tutorial on how to make photo-flow like the top of this website.

It is similar to how itunes album navigation works.

So far, all I found is this non-free photo flow. I was wondering if this can be done without paying any money.

What you want to search for is 'cover flow'. It's very easy to build yourself using pv3d - there's a tutorial here: http://labs.blitzagency.com/?p=314 and some flex components here: http://dougmccune.com/blog/2007/11/03/coverflow-flex-component/.

Upgrade to CS4 and use the built-in 3D effects.

I think you may want to look at this widget: Smile Widgets - Runway

simile-widgets.org/runway

It's released under the BSD license.

The other widgets they have are also very interesting! Smile Widgets

simile-widgets.org

From their website:

This is an open-source “spin-off” from the Simile project at MIT. Here we offer free, open-source web widgets, mostly for data visualizations. They are maintained and improved over time by a community of open-source developers.

You could abandon Flash and achieve the Cover Flow effect using JavaScript. See Apple Cover-flow effect using jQuery or other library?.

I used one called MooFlow for a site I worked on:

Seemed pretty good to me

Requires the Mootools Javascript framework
