display game name below images?

[sam19]

In my LaunchBox window, the game names are overlapping the images. The problem is that many names are way too large relative to the images and often cover up more than half of the image, rendering the screen shot or box art etc almost invisible. Is there a way to display each game's name below their image?

Only by going back to the old theme, thats just a design choice for the new theme and can be toggled on/off, but thats it.

I think this design is fine for shorter names that can fit on one line, but some filenames need 3 or 4 lines which will take up most of the image, which kind of defeats the purpose of displaying those images.

There are ways to deal with this issue using this new theme, such as:
- show only one line at the bottom for up to some number of characters of the game name, then truncate the remainder (eg "Super Mario 64 ..."), and then users can click and check out the info box on the right for the full name
- display only the main part of the name, without certain information such as revision number.
- shrink the name by using smaller fonts for longer names
- use a more transparent text background for additional visibility
