I have used the thumbnail view in my pictures folder for years and it has always shown four images in the folder and the name of the folder beneath it. Today the folder names are no longer there. I'm fairly windows literate and embarrassed that I couldn't figure something out so simple.

Sorry, I tried to figure out how to make the names go away, without success. I, too, am fairly well versed in Windows controls, but didn't find a "Don't display folder names" option anywhere. I guess that it could be a hick-up in the registry (or worse - I really hope not).
Dare you try a System Restore, just for kicks (say to yesterdays checkpoint)?

Is the a TweakUI setting to alter the colour of folder labels? If so it may have been changed to the background colour.

This problem just started for me as well. Luckily, I found the solution:
Hold down shift when you open the folder or when you switch into thumbnail view. This will turn the file names back on. Doing it again turns them back off, giving more space for the thumbnails.
I hope that helps - it worked for me!

I have a JPG that has just been uploaded, and I now need to create a

Hi,
I need some help (php rookie) to build a thumbnail page using php.
I'v a mysql database containing links to the original image files.

It would be nice when the thumbnail contains a link to the original file :-)
