Want caption in popup, don't want title on thumbnail... how?

I love the MultiBox engine and I can tweak the layout templates to get the thumbnails displaying how I prefer, but I can't seem to figure out how to lose the title on the thumbnail while still keeping the caption on the popup.

I tried this format in labels.txt: image.jpg||caption

But where the title would be, there's a thin black line. If I can just lose that thin line, I'll be all set.

I'm sure there's probably a simple code tweak for this, but I'm stumped as to where. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance for the help!

Thanks for the link. I was searching on "thumbnail" and not "thumb" Heh.

Unfortunately, that doesn't seem to have any effect on my site. For reference, I'm using Joomla 1.5, MultiBox engine, and Sleek template. Is there something additional I need to do besides copying the folder and adding that line of code to template.css in the copied folder?

Anyone? I followed the guide's instructions and Yiota's to the letter and it had no effect at all on my site. If you need more info from me to resolve this, please let me know and I'll provide it. Thanks in advance!

You also have to go to the CSS file inside the copied SIG Pro template and at the end of the file add  .sig-caption {display:none;} as mentioned on the topic I have posted above, step 3.

Yes, I did that as well. Could the path given in the instructions be incorrect? Here's the path I copied the folder to:

/templates/skulltheme-sports/html/jw_sigpro/Sleek/

I noticed that the /html/ folder didn't exist prior to me creating it for this folder copy. Could that have something to do with it having no effect?

The path seems to be correct. Could you provide a link to your site?

It seems that you are using the selection "Show generic messages". Could you enable the selection "Read contents of caption files" to see what exactly appears on the thumbnails and at the popup?

That would help you in troubleshooting, wouldn't it? Sorry, I had it turned off until I could solve the problem.

The gallery I have been testing is located here: www.culdceptcentral.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=47:gallery-cs360-air&catid=40:media-gallery&Itemid=56 .

For reference, here are the first two lines of its labels.txt (each is on a single line, as required):

armedprincess.jpg||Armed Princess (E)<BR />ST:40 HP:40 MHP:40<BR />G:250+YY<BR />Attacks First / Support / HP &amp; MHP cannot be altered by spells or territory abilities.
assassin.jpg|Assassin (S)|ST:40 HP:10 MHP:10<BR />G:20+Y+[]<BR />Territory (80G): Destroys target creature if it has taken damage of 20 or more, then returns to user's hand.

The first line was my "no title on the thumbnail" test, the second line is normal.

Other than this 1 tiny text problem, SIG Pro is working beautifully. I'm impressed with how far it's come in the short time since I bought it. :-)
