I added a few more links to the emails you receive when you get a public comment...

Instead of just going to the original post, viewing the profile, or replying privately you can now:

* Reply to the comment thread publically
* Reply to the comment and CC the person that wrote the comment
* Jump to the last comment in the thread for that post

I am also working to have the system double check that you are logged in as you before you reply... this is a "gotya" that basically effects multi-blogger households. For example:

* Joe and Mary are spouses in the same household
* Joe is logged into his account in the web browser
* Mary receives an email that someone left a comment on her blog
* Mary responds using the "reply" link in the email

Currently the reply will come from Joe if Mary is not paying attention...

It's not done yet (very shortly) but the system will try to catch this situation and warn you that you are not logged in as Mary.

Also, I believe I increased the Post/Add Comment auto-logout times from 30 minutes to 75 minutes. Let me know if this seems to help (or if you are still experiencing the problem.)

Oh just added one more thing, the blog post title now appears in "blog updated" notifications...

I've been working hard the last two days to add the Premium Membership option... and I think we are all set!

You can upgrade your account by going to "My Account" and clicking the upgrade option next to your membership status.

Current cost is $9.99 for a full year... it will allow you to have up to 500 images in your gallery and banner ads on the top of the blog pages will not appear. More benefits may come in the future.

Let me know if you have any problems!
