Lizard skin was made to be the successor of the once-famous Chameleon skin. It has a grid layout with combined folders, pages, and images - in the same order you see in jAlbum.

Lizard skin recreates Chameleon's skeuomorphic design elements with CSS effects instead of graphics - Chameleon used. This allows for a lot more flexibility and a more modern look.

This skin embraces responsive design - which is natural in 2024 -, making it look good and easy to handle on mobiles too.  

The Space style's background image was taken from the NASA image library, licensed under CCBY

- Support for "Views", introduced in jAlbum 38
- Attachment support (even of folder thumbnails)

Updated:
- Korean translation

------------------------------------------------------

Version 3.0

New:
- Open Street Map is used when no Google Maps API key is provided, using Volodymyr Agafonkin's Leaflet library: https://leafletjs.com/
- Contact page map falls back to OpenStreetMap in case there's no Google API key
- Auto-rotate and Rotation speed settings for 360° panoramas
- Threads and BlueSky sharing on the Contact page
- Better Caption Preset box behavior 
- The maximum length of titles in the menus and the Sitemap page can be specified
- Option for allowing an item to be added more than once to the feedback cart
- When turning on the "Autopano" feature, the skin checks if the image width is enough for panoramas and suggests a correction 

Changed:
- Redesigned Cookie Policy / GDPR compliance pop-up
- Changed Advanced panel layout

Fixed:
- Missing "Up one level" button on the first folder level
- Map height changes during the page load
- Hide GPS location didn't work
- Wrong thumbnail layout and missing or misplaced map on the Newimages page
- Other file types (PDF, XLS) have a broken thumbnail in the Feedback card

Updated:
- Hungarian translation

------------------------------------------------------

Version 2.1

New:
- Threads and Bluesky sharing (experimental)
- In the tag cloud, you can avoid collecting tags from Folders, Pages, or Web Locations. Now, by default, the skin collects tags only from folders. Previously, it collected tags from every custom page, too.
- You can use the "&" character in search in place of "and". (E.g., 'cat & dog' - mind the spaces around!)

Changed:
- Slide pages are only generated when the sharing button is enabled in the Lightbox, i.e., individual image sharing is possible (or Sitemap is used) 

Fixed:
- Tag search with "and" did not find the images containing both keywords
- Clicking a moving panorama didn't stop it; it continued from the start position. Now, it simply stops, and when you click a stopped panorama, it toggles the panels and starts the movement again.
- Multi-word tags cannot be found when using the URL (...#label=Jim%20Beam) 
- Accessing external albums added as web locations might fail
- Empty tag cloud box

Updated:
- French and Dutch translations

------------------------------------------------------

Version 2.0.1

Fixed:
- Linking to originals (with no slide images) results in missing lightbox images
- The initial position of the lightbox image might be off-center
- Lightbox image might not fit to screen initially

Changed:
- Line-spacing in the tag cloud box made tighter when variable font size is used

Updated:
- French and Dutch translations

------------------------------------------------------

Version 2.0

New:
- Pinch zoom support. The controls and other panels in the lightbox stay in place while pinch zooming, in contrast to the browser's zoom, which zooms the whole page.
- Possibility to control the slideshow interval and transition speed for images independently; see Edit mode -> Image data panel
- Double-clicking or tapping the image zooms into the clicked/tapped area
- The mouse wheel in the lightbox can be used for Navigation, Zoom, or left for the browser to handle it
- You can add a logo placed above the top bar on small screens and within the bar on larger screens
- 3 new Autopano speeds: "very slow," "moderate," and "quick"
- You can mark shop options as "digital delivery" for items you don't want handling applied. Just add " D" at the end of the line! For example, "download=10.0 D" works with the global and individual options in the Image data panel. This is useful when you have mixed physical and digital products and want to avoid adding handling to digital-only carts.    
- Non-linear handling fee, depending on the number of items in the cart. It is useful if your products are similar and can apply the same shipping fee to any item. Format: PerCart + PerItem + AfterFirst
- The Tag Cloud box can be placed above the thumbnails, too
- The slide pages (made to help share individual images to Facebook) can avoid automatic redirection to help search bots (SEO) find individual images

Fixed:
- HTML and CSS validation errors
- Index page images might not be lazy-loaded after returning from the lightbox
- The photo data (or other modal windows) might not align with the triggering button; centered instead
- Custom Date formats work everywhere, like in photo data, Calendar, or new Images
- 360° VR panorama images did not use the Edit mode -> 360° image panel settings
- The database loading has been made less picky about missing folders
- Full-screen button didn't work

Changed:
- Autopano now takes the Autopano speed into account when calculating the maximum duration; now it can take longer than 20 secs to pano through a very wide panorama 
- 1 letter tags are now also displayed in the Tag cloud box
- Using "X" instead of "Twitter"
- A few libraries were overwritten to unify image transforms. In the process, support for old Internet Explorers was removed. This was necessary to support pinch handling, resulting in smoother image handling in the lightbox. 
- jAlbum (35+) will not write out the GPS coordinates into the database if not used by the album
- jQuery updated to 3.7.1

Updated:
- Hungarian translation

------------------------------------------------------

Version 1.4

New:
- Base font size has received new options (smaller and larger variations)
- Slideshow interval can be changed by the visitor (optionally) 
- You can control if PDF, DOC, and XLS files will be displayed through the Google Document Viewer. Please ensure your site allows external access to these files! See the CORS settings (in the .htaccess file)!

Changed:
- Photo data popup window made more flexible to cater to longer labels
- Besides the Comment and Title fields all other variables are treated now as un-divisible, that is, the tag cloud will not contain every word from them separately. Previously, only these fields were un-divisible: creator, keywords, filename, and regions.
- Variables used in Tag cloud and Search are treated as arrays (multi-value variables) when using ';' semicolon(s), e.g. "foo;boo" will add both "foo" and "boo" to the Tag cloud. This doesn't apply to the Comment and Title fields.
- Better zoom slider control behavior 
- Better button color calculation
- Better modal window colors

Fixed:
- "Up one level" button links to the top-level page
- Font sizes at certain places did not follow the global "Base font size" setting
- Empty caption presets in a few styles

Updated:
- Dutch translation
