This isn't what you're looking for in an answer but I would start with the fact that the plugin hasn't been updated in over 3 yrs. It's only compatible up to wp 2.8.4 and there have been some seriously heavy changes to wp since that time.

NeXTGen was updated 30days ago. This is where you're problem lies.

WIsh I could be of some help.

Here's a link to a recent write up on Tripwire about sliders. Maybe you can find a solution through an updated slider.

I see on your site there are 2 js framework that is not loaded correctly:
<!-- add prototype scripts -->
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript" src="http://www.julieorrdesign.com/wp-includes/js/prototype.js"></script>
<!-- add scriptaculous scripts -->
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript" src="http://www.julieorrdesign.com/wp-includes/js/scriptaculous/scriptaculous.js"></script>

both script loaded are not using standard wp_enqueue_script,
on WP 3.5, these script are removed from wp-includes folder, and will be loaded from google cdn if use wp_enqueue_script.

you can edit the path in the plugin file on d13slideshow.php line 687-688
$p_path = get_bloginfo('wpurl')."/wp-includes/js/scriptaculous/prototype.js";
$s_path = get_bloginfo('wpurl')."/wp-includes/js/scriptaculous/scriptaculous.js";

to google cdn:
$p_path = "http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/prototype/1.7.1.0/prototype.js";
$s_path = "http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/scriptaculous/1.9.0/scriptaculous.js";

to see if it work..
