 15. Wow, that transparacy feature is great!
      But as I said in my e-mail, I would love
     it if I could have the close button besides my username in that small area at 
     the bottom of the Blummy. Doesn’t that make sense..?

 30. Hello, sorry to drop by again, but is it me or does blummy still continue to crash
     Opera 9.0 ? I’m using Opera 9.0 pr1, it might be buggish, but can you see around
     a bit man? I mean, it worked fine on the previous site design of blummy, but now
     as soon as the blummy homepage loads BLAM! opera crashes ;(
