I did not like to see the backup sparsebundle image from the Time Machine backup in the Time Capsule directory. So I made it hidden with this command in Terminal (after I used cd to get into the Time Capsule directory):

chflags -R hidden MyComputername.sparsebundle/
The backup still works, even though the backup file is hidden.
