I have gotta say a big thank you to Norman for posting this.

The poor guy is on holiday and not only did he process my order for Lightbox within an hour of payment but he also helped me do this customization.

A point worth noting - If you go beyond the standard 10 images

While you are in:- Design - Library - Variables - Lightbox

Go to each variable - LightboxImage1 to 9

And change the "Prompt Value" for each one so that they are 01, 02, 03 etc

They will then display in sequence when you click the "Lightbox" tab within a product

You shouldn't need to amend the existing propts to 01, 02 if you copy LightboxImage10 and LightboxTitle10 and rename.

Items 1 through 9 have prompts of e.g. LightboxImage<space>1, LightboxImage<space>2, etc; and 10 onwards is like LightboxImage10, LightboxImage11, etc. Since space sorts above the digits the correct sequence should be displayed.
