2. You can disable the caption bar background,Just set bar alpha to “0″ by setBarAlpha() method or store the value in IMGOWL tags for smarty.

3. You can make the caption bar to solid box,Just set bar alpha to “100″ by setBarAlpha() method or store the value in IMGOWL tags for smarty.

5. You can show photos in full mask for unregistered user or non-login user by setBarHeight. It’s very great idea.

e.g: You have a photo,photo’s height is 300 pixels.

For non-login user,you can use setBarHeight method to set barHeight to “300″ pixel and barAlpha is “80″.So your photo will show in full mask. The mask is almost solid.

For login user,change the “barHeight” to “0″ and barAlpha to “0″,too. Your photo will show normally. Voila.
