Refinements to AutoIndex Text Only plugin request

I am using autoindex text-only in order to generate an alphabetically ordered list of galleries.  The autoindex will only contain the name of a person or event in the title field.  The description field will be empty and of course no thumbnail.  Because I can have upwards of 30 galleries indexed, I don't want each listing to take up a lot of real-estate. Unfortunately, the plugin will not allow me to make the album height smaller than 100.  I would like to make the height about 40 or 50.  I would also like to turn off the text fading style because there will not be a description.  Of course, I would like the title to be centered in the album if possible. 
Is there a file that I can edit to manually set the album height smaller than 100 and also turn off the fade styling?
Can this option be added to a future autoindex update?

Re: Refinements to AutoIndex Text Only plugin request

In the autoindex template, the file style-component contains the following:

.album-overlay {
    background-image: -webkit-linear-gradient( 135deg, rgba( 241, 241, 241, 0 ),
        rgba( 241, 241, 241, 1 ) 85%);
    background-image: -moz-linear-gradient( 135deg, rgba( 241, 241, 241, 0 ),
        rgba( 241, 241, 241, 1 ) 85%);
    background-image: -o-linear-gradient( 135deg, rgba( 241, 241, 241, 0 ),
        rgba( 241, 241, 241, 1 ) 85%);
    background-image: -ms-linear-gradient( 135deg, rgba( 241, 241, 241, 0 ),
        rgba( 241, 241, 241, 1 ) 85%);
    background-image: linear-gradient(135deg,
        rgba( 241, 241, 241, 0 ), rgba( 241, 241, 241, 1 ) 85%);   
    }

.album-mantle:hover .album-overlay {
    background-image: -webkit-linear-gradient( 135deg, rgba( 221, 221, 221, 0 ),
        rgba( 221, 221, 221, 1 ) 85%);
    background-image: -moz-linear-gradient( 135deg, rgba( 221, 221, 221, 0 ),
        rgba( 221, 221, 221, 1 ) 85%);
    background-image: -o-linear-gradient( 135deg, rgba( 221, 221, 221, 0 ),
        rgba( 221, 221, 221, 1 ) 85%);
    background-image: -ms-linear-gradient( 135deg, rgba( 221, 221, 221, 0 ),
        rgba( 221, 221, 221, 1 ) 85%);
    background-image: linear-gradient(135deg,
        rgba( 221, 221, 221, 0 ), rgba( 221, 221, 221, 1 ) 85%);   


Is this the CSS that I need to change?  Can you tell me what parameter I need to change so that the text does not fade at the bottom?

Thanks!!

Change nothing. Add:

.album-overlay { display: none; }
