It was going to be Attachment Fluff Duster but I think I had Dust Buster fixed in my head and I had published it before Mick pointed it out :oops:

Basically you are hiding a whole DD node with CSS with an important! property, that's all this extension does.
I would recommend using PHP and simulating what thumbnails do to get the same result.
On mouseover (or tap) there should be the same result at standard code level.
This hack I would see much better if suggested in extreme cases at custom coding level, but I don't accept it. Sorry. :)

Correct. It may well not be the perfect way, and yes it is a hack (which I do not consider to be an insult) but it is not a lot different to the accepted way of answering this common question which is editing out the code within attachments.html

Thanks for your great extension.
Sometimes, i want to upload some audio files, people can get what the audio is from its name.
So can you add an option to hide image name only?

Is this reversible once installed? Like if I want the info to be displayed again?

EDIT
NVM. Just disable the extension.
