I use coppermine to let clients view photos I've taken for them - an online proofing system I suppose...  Works great, many thanks to the developers.  I have one problem that I was hoping someone had a fairly easy solution to.  When viewing the intermediate image, the position of the image is displayed above the image (ie.,  12/55).  People invariably take this as the image number since the real filename is less noticeable below.  I've previously gone into coppermine to determine the real filename.  But yesterday I realized (after printing the wrong image) that the 'position' changes depending on where they are viewing it from.  In other words, from the album, the image may be 12/55 but from their favorites it may be 20/88.  Does anyone have a suggestion on how to make the filename more prominent?  Maybe replace the position with the filename?  Many thanks.

OK, lets replace the position with the filename. Copy this function into your theme's theme.php file

thanks for the speedy response.  Just to clarify - I use the igames theme and don't allow the users to switch.  So I add the code you provided to that theme.php?  Any particular place?  I'm not replacing anything - just adding?  Sorry for the questions, but I'm not a programmer and I want to do it right...

Add it in just before the ?> at the end of the file.

Works perfect!  You are my hero!

Great find here on this super-easy change, thanks Nibbler, and thanks JD for asking. Perfect solution for my situation, too.
