There are several built-in templates, and any additionional templates you have activated in the Extensions area will also be seen as a choice here.
Thumbnail Size
You can specify the size of the thumbnails in your gallery. You can choose from the built-in WordPress image sizes as you have them set in Dashboard>Settings>Media and any custom sizes defined by your theme or other plugins, or you can set a custom size for the thumbnail as in the image below.
Thumbnail Link
Here you can choose to link your thumbnails to it’s full size image, or to the media attachment page.
In most cases, we recommend linking to the full size image so lightbox plugins like FooBox will work properly.

Hover Effect
Choose the hover effect you would like applied to your gallery thumbnail images.

Click the shortcode in this box to automatically copy it to your clipboard for easy pasting elsewhere.
Finally, after you’ve copied the gallery shortcode click the Publish button to ensure your new gallery has been saved ready for use
