hrm.. well.. i ran stylish (FF add-on) to play a bit..

setting .author-content {display:none;}

works and kinda doesn't..

Click for full size

i'd have to look closer.. because removing a TD outta the equation kills the flow for sure. and you can't be tricky and set it to width:0px; either, since the td has an explicit size.. laugh

small tweak to the .tpls though and voila.. wink
