    - If site title, site description, or article title contained reserved XML characters invalid RSS feeds were generated

    - Image Descriptions load properly when two separate images in two separate albums share the same name

    - Trailing slash no longer mandatory for album location. Meaning "~/Albums/Me" is just as good as "~/Albums/Me/" and won't result in the often confusing "Image Not Found" message

    I dont know if you reviewed the site and its information corrrectly.

    1. The BETA versions are in fact free, the price goes into effect once we have finished beta testing.
    2. The requirements on this page list ".NET Framework 1.1" this should not have been a suprise.

    I' am not aware of any other apps that does everything out app does. Our Dynamic Image Scaler for instance creates thumbnails and downscales images for visitors w/ no storage space needed.

    More webhosts are starting to carry ASP.NET 1.1 due to the fact the open source Mono project www.go-mono.org has already been released version 1.0.

    Just a few additional information regarding to this software.

    1. It's NOT free!! It costs $19.95.
    2. It's built on ASP.NET 1.1 technology.
    3. It's demo site is at http://www.thinkist.net/.../Archetype/default.aspx

    Apart from that, the this blog software looks simple and tidy. However the ASP.NET support is rare on standard web hosts and there are plenty of PHP-based script do exactly the same and most of them are FREE...
