These suggestions concern the DEFAULT web skin.

I'm going to include a few suggestions in this one report if that's OK. They all relate to the display of text (album name, date, disc of disc and artist name) in the browse pane (browsing with album covers)

Suggestion #1: Omit the word "by" before artist names and put names on a new line

This suggestion is for placing the Artist/Performer tag on a new line instead of in-line with the other text that is currently displayed when browsing by album covers.

This will help normalize the appearance of artist names by making sure that each artist's name is displayed the same way for all their albums.

Please also wrap the Artist's name in a unique CSS style element so that it can be styled independently of the other text.

The attached screen capture shows 4 different appearances of the name "Arctic Monkeys" on four albums.

Suggestion #2: Make the "(Disc x of y)" element non-wrapping.

This will push it to a new line automatically when needed but allow it to remain with the other text (year and title) when not needed.

Suggestion #3: If not already in place, please wrap the album title and year each in unique style tags so they may be styled independently of the artist name and disc # if required/desired.
