 * Hi Benjamin,
    You can change this by creating your own template. Follow this 
   instructions:
 * > You can create your own template file. You need to create a new “wppic-templates”
   > folder into your theme folder, then copy the template file “wppic-template-
   > plugin-large.php” or “wppic-template-theme-large.php” from the WP Plugin Info
   > Card ‘/wppic-templates’ folder. Rename the file as “wppic-template-plugin-NEWTEMPLATE.
   > php” or “wppic-template-theme-NEWTEMPLATE.php”, edit it as you go, and add 
   > your own CSS rules. Finally, call your new template by adding the following
   > parameter in your shortcode: layout=”NEWTEMPLATE”

 * Hello Friend,
    I was wondering if you could create something like this just for
   themes, so I understand how the codes work. I’ve been trying to break apart your
   plugin, but its really hard to understand. Is this something that you can help
   me achieve. I rather have custom shortcodes that allows me to choose what i want.
   same thing how the custom works within the theme.

 * Hi,
    I don’t understand your question. What I mentioned above works for themes
   too:
 * > Rename the file as “wppic-template-plugin-NEWTEMPLATE.php” or “wppic-template-
   > theme-NEWTEMPLATE.php”
 * At the top each template, you have the variables retrieved by the API, you just
   have to play with them to achieve what you want.
 * Best,

 * Yes, I know, I can’t figure out how to change the date format to Month, Day, 
   Year. that’s all I need. This is for the option for last_updated
