i added a feature that would alert you when you have a private message in your inbox.
it should be set by default, but after playing with it a little it looks like you have to turn it on yourself.
on the top right corner of the page is where you see if you have a private message. click on Messages and it will take you to your Inbox. You should see a Preferences Link to your right. click it and you should see an option that says Pop Up Messaging, or something to that effect, if there isnt already a check mark there already place one, and click save. now if anyone sends you a private message you will get Dialog Box telling you, and you accept it it will open in a new window....
kewl? kewl....
