No personal message functions

A site improvement should include great new features. This one has lost great old features - Blipfolio (not so great but it's gone), view count (nice to know), comment editing, embedded links from comments (so much tidier). I'd hoped you would have introduced personal messaging to allow private contacts, blipper-to-blipper, but maybe you were worried about subversives. The forum isn't a forum really is it. The main features, however, - uploading, editing of posts work fine, look and feel is a matter of taste - I like it. Less PC friendly (but who cares about PCs any more?). Good to get rid of the silly five star ratings. Rated gone (good, always same old, same old). I have faith that you will build in new features. Change is always difficult.
