How to use the information text file?

Use a text file to set the properties of the images. The file has to be named 'info.txt' and placed directly in the image folder. You can enter the name (=description) and an individual link for each image. The properties have to be separated with a pipe symbol |. The first parameter is the complete name with the extension of the corrsponding image, the second parameter is the description and the third the link. The link is optional, the name and the description have to be entered. Enter only one image each line!

Example:

image1.jpg|This is a great image|http://www.google.com
image2.png|Wow, how amazing!|http://joomla-extensions.kubik-rubik.de
image3.jpg|Last summer - really hot
