I would like to do something like this: http://javascript.about.com/library/blcmarquee1.htm
The script I referenced however seems to be a bit laggy (outdated?), so I was wondering if anyone knew of a better solution. (jQuery solutions welcome.)

Just found this — jQuery-driven, and has images. I’m intending to use it for a current project.
http://logicbox.net/jquery/simplyscroll/
UPDATE: I have now used this in production code. The plugin is capable of looping 70+ 150×65px images pretty smoothly - which a number of another plugin I tried similar to this were failing on.
NOTE it reeked havoc with z-index
issues in IE 6 / 7 and was not showing up etc. - But this might also have been partly due to my CSS. To anyone having trouble with it not showing up at all in IE check out the standard IE z-index

LATEST UPDATE: Addition things to consider when implementing plug-ins like these:
I have now also found these two scroller plugins to be very good as well.

Just a thought. Could you do something like this.
<style type="text/css">
.imgwindow{
width:500px; //or whatever
height:65px; //or whatever
position:relative;
overflow:hidden;
}
.imgholder{
min-width:2000px;
height:65px;
position:absolute;
left:-200px;
}
.inline-image{
display:inline-block;
}
</style>
<script type="text/javascript">
var img;
function imgScroll(){
img = $(".inline-image").first();
img.animate({width:0},2500,'linear',function(){
img.remove();
$(".imgholder").append(img);
imgScroll();
});
}
$(document).ready(function(){
imgScroll();
});
</script>
and the html
<div class="imgwindow">
<div class="imgholder">
<img class="inline-image" src="image1" /><img class="inline-image" src="image2" />...
</div>
</div>
