Five BlogBuilder improvements

Response to prompt "Five things to improve BlogBuilder" (View all responses or all Autology: John Dale's blog responses)

My suggestions:-

1. Go back to the old "showall" model where you see all of each entry. I agree with Chris ; seeing just the first few characters achieves nothing except being irritating.
2. Add an option to expand the "showall" page so that each entry is shown with its comments (if any) as well, so there's no need to open a pop-up for each entry.
3. Fix the "two spaces after a hyperlink" bug.
4. Make it possible (and easy!) to upload and include an image within a post.
5. Where there are comments to a post, divide them up more clearly. Change the comments icon at the bottom of a post to stand out more if the number of comments is > 0.
6. (I'm over the limit now, but I don't care!) Take out all those insanely annoying "Operation succeeded, redirecting you" intermediate screens. Human beings don't say to each other "I have heard what you've just said and am contemplating my reply"; nor should our software!
