Note: It should look like the example below
Note: When we mouseover the hotspot we see the name of the Gallery in the tooltip.
Clicking on the icon opens the popup with the title, image and description.
In the image area there is a next arrow button, clicking on it takes us to the next image. Now there are two arrow buttons to move forward and back.
Opening the direct link in an iPad or iPhone we see the responsive popups.
