$subtitle="so fab";
$comments_on=1;
$reverse=0;
$show_thumbs=5;
$thumb_dates=1;
$rand_thumbs=0;
$image_link=1;
$image_maxwidth=0;
$thumb_maxwidth=75;
$thumbs_perrow=5;
$rows_perpage=4;
$sort=0;
$template="template";
$email="your-email@example.net";
$fbpass="samplepass";
$folderblog_filename="index.php";
//File Info
$photo_directory="photos/";
$captions_directory="photos/";
$comments_directory="comments/";
$thumbs_directory="thumbs/";
$file_extension=".jpg";
$index_directory=$photo_directory;
?>
Instructions and definitions for each variable are contained within the PHP file.
