- Justified responsive grid layout for images.
- Optimised image loading (lazy loading).
- Captions that appear over the image bottom, either statically, or on mouse hover.
- Ability to tweak caption style without writing extra CSS.
- Ability to use rich text for captions (by adding text fields in views).
- Several loader icon styles to choose from.
