This commit now allows 100 pixel thumbnails as the smallest setting. In this <br>
setting, all other information is hidden except for the rating and file name <br>
and / or title. With smaller settings we get problems with the overlays above, <br>
the flags or the icon for groups.<br>
The 100 pixels are definitely the smallest acceptable size for me, so that the <br>
operation and appearance typical of digiKam is retained.<br>
