    It is very nice to hear that Easy Photo Album is the easiest photo album plugin you’ve found. ??

    Changing the overlay color is possible, but I don’t recommend it, because it makes the contrast very low. As I said: it is possible, but it is not easy. I don’t know if you feel yourself comfortable enough with editing code, but you have to choose for yourself. (A little warning: When you make a mistake in your code (delete a character too much or too less, for example), your site will break.

    How to change the overlay color

    Open the file style.css, located in wp-content/themes/<yourthemename>/.
    Add somewhere below in the file the following code:

    .lightboxOverlay {
        background-color: #FFFFFF !important;
    }
    .lb-data {
        color: #666666 !important;
    }
    
    .lb-data .lb-number {
        color: #888888;
    }

    #FFFFFF is the background color (in this case clear white).
    You may want to change the image caption text color (#666666) or the “Image 3 of 6” text color (#888888).

    Those changes will be lost when you update your theme.

    Thank you, it doesn’t seem difficult. But your warning thats its possible i am gonna ruin my whole site by making a small single mistake….
    I now am using the galery of WP (carousel), it has a standard option to choose between white or black overlay, but i prefer (much more) the lay- out of easy photo album

    In this case, only the layout of your website will break if you do something wrong. What you can do is back-up style.css (copy it) and then add the code. If your website looks weird, replace style.css with your backed up version.
