I See,... So if theres an Image I like I can click on the Lightbox button under the Image and it adds it to my Favorites?

Why isnt it just named Favorites or something?

Hi,
sorry, mawenzi, is not komplete right...

The name of the .gifs are not important.
Only the text from the buttons are not so good....

@ Kurt,
... mit "rename the button" meine ich die Textzeile auf den Buttons, natürlich nicht den Namen der Datei ...
... denn die Folgen würden sich logischer Weise durch das gesamte Script ziehen ...

@ 1Newbie 
... "rename the button" ... that meens the text on the buttons ... ;)
... use Kurt's button generator (http://4images.malediven-bilder.de/buttongenerator.php) ...
