This new plugin lets you flag thumbnails on your site as new either using an image/icon or plain text CSS overlay. Although developed by the official team it will not be included in the official release package. You can download it on our extensions section.

Zenphoto used the jQuery Thickbox script as default "box" script for quite some time.  Since Thickbox has been abandoned by its developer and the coming Zenphoto 1.2.9 will feature the brand new jQuery 1.4 Thickbox will be replaced by the Colorbox script.

The standard themes — especially the Zenpage theme — have already been updated for tonight's nightly build.
