Gallery extension for BlogEngine

Paul Tumelty wrote a very nice BlogEngine component that creates a page of Lightbox 2 links dynamically from a directory of images.

I have added to this extension, you can now pass in a “SetName” to define a set of images.  Defining a set of images in lightbox allows you to use the built in Previous and Next capabilities of Lightbox 2.

I also noticed an error with thumbnail generation, it was hard coded to a value of 75, that has been fixed as well.

I also had an issue with Prototype interfering with lightbox (making the application appear not to work).  If this happens to you simply update the blog.js file in your installation root directory of BlogEngine to correct this error.
