      center image preview with lightbox and caption
I just wanted a thumbnail or preview of the image, where if clicked it would load into a lightbox, but the preview just shows the center of whatever image is added to it.
Note: I just picked random images and they are centered, so... /runs
HTML
<a href='https://i.imgur.com/2S7oKAT.png' class='fancybox'>
  <div class='image-bg'></div>
  <figcaption>Click This Image! (or dont...)</figcaption>
</a>
<!-- so now we can just switch the image source, but it needs a new bg class for each, which is annoying, unless we move to ... inline styles -->
<!-- It does make it a bit more messy, but easier to update inline. -->
