Fixed:
- Transition types involving 3D transformations fell back to 2D
- Initial image stays too short when starting a slideshow
- Automatic start of slideshow when using the URL with "&slideshow" parameter didn't work
- Version number has remained v4.1.1, triggering repeated skin update warnings

Fixed:
- Changing fast between skins (before the skin load is completed) might hang jAlbum

Fixed:
- No folder image in Card or Turntable mode
- The poster image lingers on after loading a video

Updated:
- Dutch and Hungarian translations

Changed:

Fixed:

- Custom page content might get unscrollable
- Search result (or tag result) overlays' headers placed behind the images, so it was impossible to return to the normal view

Updated:
- French and Dutch translations

New:
- Use a single click to toggle the thumbnails
- Possibility to use double-click to magnify the image

Fixed:
- Sharp moves when starting or ending a swipe gesture
