Album List on all Pages

[SenshiG]

What I'd like to do is have a table with a list of all the albums in a table on all pages (such as under the thumbnails in each gallery).  Any way to do this besides putting a list of links in the template?  (Assuming that would work, I know little beyond basic html)

I'm using Coppermine for a wallpaper website, and there are over 180 albums (one for each anime series on the website).  I'm trying to come up with a reasonable way to handle that (my old website was all done in html-- a drag-- but I had a four-columned table at the bottom of every page with a list of links in alphabetical order), giving users an option to go to a different album without going back to the home page.  Any pre-existing ways of doing that (I searched but didn't find anything).

Also, I can't seem to get rid of the thumbnails on the index page.  I would like to just have the links, and not the thumbnail or "last added" dates.  Under Config > Album List View, I have " Show first level album thumbnails in categories" set to "no," but they still show up.  Am I looking at the wrong option.

Obviously, I'm a Coppermine newbie, so if you need me to elaborate on my questions, I can try and do so.
