Fixed!
That bug that was logging people out at random - the same bug that occasionally gave you someone else's name on a comments page - has been found and fixed.
It's a CherryPy bug and not a Minx bug, so I'm going to see if it's been fixed in the new beta of CherryPy, and if not, file a bug report.
The only problem is that I spent three hours looking for a bug in my code before I turned my gaze to CherryPy.

It's ALWAYS the last place you look, innit?

Here is a terribly minor glitch I hadn't noticed before. The lower margin of the post does not recognize images. That is, on a very short post, unless the lower margin is lowered via the ENTER key, the image spills into the post below it.
I first noticed it here. Of course the link won't show it bleeding into the post below
This is the case in Firefox, IE, and AOL.
This is a ridiculously easy fix of course...hit enter 'till the post lower margin is below the image.
(duh!)
I only mention it because it might be a symptom of a bug of some kind.
I'll leave the relevant post unfixed for a day.

Yes, I saw that on your blog. That's a weird one. It's a CSS issue, so it's time to go spelunking in the CSS docs again.

Well, I went ahead and lowered the margin manually.

I got around that problem by creating a spacer 1px high x 450px wide. Stick that in after any problem image (and any text you want to be adjacent to it), and everything squares up. Example: this post, spacer included after "Help!" (see source). Also this one.
