What is a Lightbox anyway?
Here is how Google describes the Lightbox feature of Blogger:
Clicking on an image in a blog post will bring up the image in a larger overlay on top of your blog, called a lightbox. All blog images, regardless of whether directly uploaded from your computer or linked to from another source, will be displayed in this lightbox view.
If there are multiple images in the blog post, then all of those images will be available to browse through when the lightbox view is opened.
How to disable it
Actually it's pretty easy. Blogger has a default setting for it in the newer version!
Note: This is an awesome and unique feature of Blogger. Think twice before disabling it!

1. Go to your blogger dashboard.
2. Go to Settings >> Posts and comments.
3. Under Posts, you will see an option of Showcase images with Lightbox. By default, it will be Yes. Choose No.
4. Hit Save settings in the top-right and you're done!
You will probably be wondering why I chose to write such a basic tutorial! The truth is, it maybe basic for you, but it sin't for newbies.
Recently, many people e-mailed me asking about how to disable the light box. It's better off to write a post about it than to answer all those people individually! For the record, they didn't even knew that it is called a "lightbox".
But it's not their fault. Did you know what it was called when you created your first Blogger blog? Hell, when I created my first blog, I didn't even knew such a feature existed at all!
So this is for all the newbies out there! There's no need to worry or feel sad if you don't know such basic things about Blogger. I will help you in knowing them!
