 * In previous versions of NextGen to create custom HTML markup of gallery we used“
   templates”. in 2.0 it has label “not recommended”. So which method is recommended
   now?
 * For example, I’m want to create a plugin that creates custom gallery template(“
   display type”). Is there an API for this?
 * Thank you.
