PeopleZen: Feedback Forum > Customizing Tile View

So, I have read the Customizing bits and am gettting quite dangerous :-). What I would like to do, however, is a better job of formatting the individual items. For example, by default when I choose Title I see the following displayed:
Title: (users Title).

As we are trying to put our contact lists in a narrow right column, and we have long titles, these invariably wrap and don't look very nice at all. Examining the items in the IE Toolbar I see HTML that shows the Title and the Value. If I could at least suppress the Title then I could center the Value and it would look OK, but if I try to leave the Title blank in the web part nothing displays. By default when I add Title as a Field the Web Part panel shows Title: Title, the "empty" entry shows if I simply remoe the second part, leaving just Title. If I set this to Title: T-, then my display shows T-:(users Title).
I have not found in the CSS how to resolve this, any hints or suggestions on where to look?

Thanks!

Bill, we have an undocumented cheat in there. The label goes away by using the "special" display name of ___ (that's 3 underscores!) I realize that this is a bit nasty, but it will do the trick for you.
