overlay for hidden photo in Organizer

Is there anyway to show the "X" or some overlay on the photos that have been marked hidden in the Organizer of the new smugmug? I believe there was a red "X" on them in the old Smugmug.

    Photos that are hidden show a symbol to indicate they are hidden. This shows in the gallery and it shows in organizer.
    In addition to the symbol sitting in the center of the photo there is a haze over the thumbnail.

    I just hid a photo in one of my galleries to verify this. I've attached a screen shot showing the symbol.

    Does it show that if you are not in Organizer?
    When you, logged in, is viewing the site?
    I see it like a regular photo when I am viewing the gallery.

    Yes, you see the icon for the hidden photo in the upper right corner of the photo.

    Thank you. I couldn't see it because it was white on white.
    May I make a suggestion? Can we "dim" the photo to make it more obvious that it is "hidden"?

    I completely agree. I haven't published yet, but noticed this issue in my New Smug too-- It's weird that hidden photos are dimmed out in the Organizer, but not in the main views of our gallery! And I didn't notice the white icons for quite awhile-- on many photos they simply don't show up like the red "X" did. I'd rather they had a red "X" instead of dimmed out, because when I see the hidden ones with their correct lighting, I can quickly see why I hid them (often a couple different lighting variations, some of which I don't want to get rid of entirely, because they work better for print). Now I'll have to click on them to see that.. waste of time. But if we're stuck with a white icon, which blends in with so many photos, then I wish the hidden photos were dimmed out in the main view as well.

    I am hoping someone can come up withe some CSS hack to change this behavior.

    We have some items in the work that will make it easier to see the hidden icon, even when the photo has the same white color.

    I can't wait to see when that comes out.
    Thank you.
