 That's it!  You have now paginated ``object_list`` and given users of the site
 a way to navigate between the different pages--all without touching your views.
 
+Custom pagination templates
+---------------------------
+
+In order to override the default pagination template, declare a context variable 
+named ``pagination_template`` set to the template name::
+
+    {% with 'pagination/blog/post.html' as pagination_template %}
+        {% autopaginate posts pagesize %}
+        {% paginate %}
+    {% endwith %}
+
+The default pagination template is contained in the ``pagination/default.html`` 
+file inside the distribution.
+
+A Note About Uploads
+--------------------
+
+It is important, when using django-pagination in conjunction with file uploads,
+to be aware of when ``request.page`` is accessed.  As soon as ``request.page``
+is accessed, ``request.upload_handlers`` is frozen and cannot be altered in any
+way.  It's a good idea to access the ``page`` attribute on the request object 
+as late as possible in your views.
