Hi,

I love the DNN label control but sometimes the forms look too cluttered with the Question Mark image on every field.

A simple solution would be a new property (defaulting to True) called ShowHelpIfBlank and if the FieldName.Help string was empty it would not show the question mark. This way the implementor could clear the help strings of the common sense fields (like First Name = "Enter your First Name") and have control over when help is offered to the user. I think this would be a 20 minute change with great benefit - opinions?

Good idea - those help icons look pretty dumb when you click them and they have no text, you just get a blank yellow line.
