Seamlessly integrates FancyBox into your blog: Upload, activate, and you're done. No further configuration needed. However, you can customize it from the Options Page if you like... :)

You can easely customize almost anything you can think about fancybox: the border, margin width and color, zoom speed, animation type, close button position, overlay color and opacity and even more advanced option like several options to group images into galleries, and more...

By default, the plugin will use jQuery to apply FancyBox to ANY thumbnails that link directly to an image. This includes posts, the sidebar, etc, so you can activate it and it will be applied automatically.

Finally, i have only tested the plugin in WordPress 2.7, so it's very recomended to use it with WordPress 2.7 or later. After all, there's no reason why you shouldn't be already using WP2.7, is there? ;)
