Matt,

Thanks for doing all of this work to help make MVS even better. I wanted to make sure you understood how much we all appreciate that you do this for us.

Thanks again,

John, thanks :-). You don't have to thank me... I consider this as much "fun" as "work", if not more.

Image Italics: that is a bug in my code that appears in some PC browsers. It's high on my list. It's not by design.
Image Page titles: added to Fix list, thanks J.
Image Tapatalk: at top of the list.
Image Image upload: even higher than Tapatalk.

Page load times are substantially improved as reported by http://tools.pingdom.com/

JRL: sorry for my snarky comment, not professional on my part. If you have photos of your home I'd love to see them. I hope to be able to design a home to live in one day. I'm a big fan of Wright, Lautner, Neutra... mid century ranches and anything in Palm Springs pretty much.

Ok, on to bug fixes!

My uncle was the architect in the family. He was the one whose designs followed the F-L-W type of thinking.
His own home in Long Island, designed in the late 40s was really neat from what I can remember.
When I was young I was hung up on Tudors. This house was sort of a mini Tudor/country A frame design, at least inside.
Exterior was a mish mash, combo design since it was a remodel starting off a non descript Cal. bungalow.

Matt, could you make the hyperlinks blue/purple so they stand out a little bit more?

The email replies also have nothing in the way of actual topic replies and just have some links to click on (but I'm sure you're aware of that one)
