Hi, quick questions.

Under every post in the weblog there is the link Me option. Can anyone explain it's function/uses? Another question I have is how, or can I, put the thumbnails of images into the stories, but still keep the full sized images in the imagepool? How difficult is it to mess with the skins? What programming knowledge is required? JavaScript only? When creating a new thread/story it gives the option to have the story offline, online in topic or online in weblog? Can you explain the differences? Sometimes when I choose one option the post doesn't get posted, do you have to choose a specific option to post the story to the blog? When choosing who the post is editable for, are you able to make another option that the posts are only editable by the authors, and/or admin or is contributors only the highest level? I mean this only for posts made by admin, posts made by Contributors should only get the option of making it editable by Contributors only, well actually, it'd be nice for only the author and admin to be able to edit the post. Last question and I know this may not be answerable or may be a whole lot of work, but is it possible to set up instant email notifications when new posts are made, to the subscribers of my blog? For example is there some source code available for this or other features. My thanks in advance, and happy blogging, Jak.
