"load_image" function help.

http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/16201-toolbox-image/content/toolbox_image/load_image.m

Files were all downloaded from here. In there, examples of function for "load_image" all were done to "lena". Why is this so? How do i use "load_image" to load other arbitrary images?

I do not know why the author chose this particular image for his examples, but there is a discussion of it here.

To use another image, simply replace 'lena' as the first argument to load_image with one of the other strings described in the documentation for load_image, or with the name of an image file in the current directory, omitting the extension. See
