2) change the grey background to black or other color

3) change the compilation description after compilation image, not at the end of all albums.
it supose to be the image(cover), the description an then all the items of the compilation..

    1) actually, only detailed view exists for compilation view. if you want to change it, you'll have to open /components/com_muscol/views/album/tmpl/default.php and replace the detailed view of the compilation albuns for a grid view... you can take the layout of the grid view from /components/com_muscol/views/artist/tmpl/grid.php
    but I recommend you only to do this is you know what you're doing... dont mess up with PHP code you dont understand! ;)

    2) that is only a CSS style... I believe the file is /components/com_muscol/assets/css/artist_detailed.css, around line 88 (the class is called "data")

    3)the same file as before... /components/com_muscol/views/album/tmpl/default.php open it and change the place where every thing is printed out. again, do it only if you understand what you're doing

    4) thats a bit more difficult.. (this would involve change a MySQL query. you you know MySQL?), the de-facto order is always the RELEASE DATE, older to newer

    best,
