Hi - I've got photos up on my site (which has star aurora theme) and they have numbers on the photos.
At first it was only when you hovered the cursor over a pic but now it seems to be that the photos just have a number on them permanently. Zero at the moment but I think its programmed to act as a counter for how many people view the pic?
Anyway, I want to disable and have no idea how! Any tips gratefully received! Kate
*The number refers to the number of notes a post has.* On Tumblr, a note refers to a social action, or as I'll try to explain it, "something someone has done with your post". Each time someone replies to your post, reblogs (shares on their own blog) your post, or likes your post or someone's reblog of your post, a note is added, and the note count goes up by 1.
The note count also appears on the dashboard (the page you see at www.tumblr.com), at the top-right corner. You can click the note count to see the actual notes (who has reblogged/liked/etc.).

Incidentally, you can also see the four buttons that Tumblr users can click to produce notes — reply (with text), reblog, reply with photo, and like. Note that not all social actions are available for all posts.
*So, the reason your posts show a zero is simply because no one has reblogged, replied to, or liked your posts — yet.*
I took a look at your theme. For this theme, you can hide the note count by putting the following in your Custom CSS. (Custom CSS is in Tumblr » your blog » Customize » Advanced.)

You can try looking for *{Caption}* in your theme code. If it's not there, then the theme's author didn't put any code to display the captions. You can add it yourself by inserting the basic caption block I wrote above in any appropriate place within *{block:Photo}…{/block:Photo}*.

Hello! I also use the star aurora theme and I have a question as well, for you Kate. How did you go about setting up your pages? The names of my pages are so close together at the moment and I like how yours are spaced evenly apart.

You can tweak the spacing of page links via CSS. The page links have class menu_item, so the CSS selector .menu_item will match each page link. It looks like her blog is using:
.menu_item {margin: 0 15px;}
You can put that in your custom CSS box (Tumblr » your blog » Customize » Advanced) and play around with the value until you get something you like.

I've highlighted the part in interest. It looks like {LinkOpenTag} is generating the /image/145783202 link, but {Permalink}, however, produces the link you want. (I marked some of the code in red because that's the note count stuff you've hidden via the custom CSS stuff described earlier in this thread<https://groups.google.com/d/topic/tumblr-themes/Ceh0tRklwWc/discussion>. If you were to unhide it, you would notice that if you click the big 0, you'd get to the permalink page, which does have the caption.)
*How to fix:* If you want clicking an image to always take the user to the permalink page (which has captions), replace {LinkOpenTag} with <a href="{Permalink}"> and {LinkCloseTag} with </a>.
Hope that made sense and works!
