Overlays

Show "new" icon for X when images X in the last X days: You may choose to display a small "New" icon overlay on image thumbnails, folder thumbnails, both, or neither, for new images. For a folder, the icon is displayed if that folder contains an image (at any lower level) that meets the criterion. The "newness" of the image may be determined by the date it was added to the project or by the date on which the photo was taken. The number of days is calculated relative to the date on which the album is created.
Position: The position of the "New" indicator overlay.
Inset: The number of pixels the "New" indicator overlay is inset from the corner of the thumbnail image. Negative values place the overlay beyond the edges of the image.
Text color: The text color for the "New" indicator that is overlayed on a thumbnail.
Background color: The background color for the "New" indicator that is overlayed on a thumbnail.
The text that is displayed, which defaults to NEW, is set under Text » Index Page. Its size and style can be adjusted under Fonts » Index Page. When a visitor hovers on the "New" icon, the popup tooltip shows the date on which the image was added or taken. The tooltip prefix, which defaults to Added: or Taken:, depending upon the "newness" criterion chosen, is set under Text » Index Page. The date format is taken from the jAlbum setting under Album » Settings » Advanced » General.
