##Deploying
After compiling you will find an executable called `eidolon` in `.stack-work/dist/<arch>/Cabal-<version>/build/eidolon/`, where `<arch>` is your system architecture and `<version>` your current cabal version. Copy or link it anywhere you want. The executable needs to be accompanied by the folders `config` and `static` and their contents. It's best to copy them to your desired destination.

##Customizing
Unfortunately the gallery is not highly customizable, but you can change most of its appearance by changing the files `static/css/static-*.css`. Especially the default background image can be changed by replacing `static/css/img/bg.jpg`.
