There are two ways of setting Floom up. One is the object way, where you specify the image url and the caption using the key-value notation, the second one is by simply passing a element collection, ie. $$('#blinds img'), where the passed element has to be the actual image collection. In this scenario the caption is the elements title attribute.

All options have default values assigned, hence are optional.
