I've searched around there's so many but none seems to fit the requirements.
so here is what i'm looking for:
- needs to be lightweight (10+kb of JS just to slide images around is an overkill in my opinion and this is where most of the sliders fail at)
- not many effects are needed, simple slide or fade will do
- possible CSS3 support with fallback to jquery.animate would be a plus.
- it should let you put links on the images without having to use a caption
I tried nivoslider its too heavy, flexslider is 11kb minified javascript, anythingslider is 15kb minified, orbit is now part of foundation and the latest version is also too big.

SlidesJS is less than 7kb minified and works pretty well. It does simple slide and supports links. Not sure about the CSS3/Animate requirement.
You've tried the two most popular sliders around (Nivo <11k packed and Orbit <5k Packed), so there may not be anything else that is robust and suits your needs.
I've listed out some catalogs below and some ideas for places to look at that might be helpful below.

Take a tour through the templates at theme forest, there may be a suitable slider in one of the live demos.

You can download a zip with a demo here. It just fades from one to the next. No documentation, just code (less than 1Kb).
