 * The design I’m working on calls for the picture title and description to be displayed
   on the page. I was able to accomplish this by adding
 * `<h2><?php echo $pic_detail[$flag]->title; ?></h2><p><?php echo $pic_detail[$
   flag]->description; ?></p>`
 * at the end of line 60 of the gallery-bank/views/front_view.php file.
 * This is my first time customizing a WordPress plugin and I’m not sure what the
   proper etiquette is. How do I prevent future updates from overwriting my hack?

 * Unfortunately, updates would always over-write the changes.
 * You had to take backup of your changes once you need to upgrade.
