Now, when a comment is added the person who uploaded the image receives an email notice that a comment was added to one of their phots and a link to view the photo and comment.

Also, adding a image comment automatically posts a message to the original uploader of the image in the message area. The subject is the image title. The messge shows the comment made plus the actual image below it.

Any subsequent comments, after the first, are automatically added as replies to the first comment that goes to the message section.

For now I'm asking forum managers not to move, delete, change thread, merge threads, or any orher such actions on any of the photo comment messages posted to a forum. I want to do some internal testing of the consequences of such actions prior to you using these functions.

Please be aware of this new functionality if these comments start showing up in your forum image galley and message board, and please let me know if you see anything problematic.
