With BP 1.2 the default theme is greatly simplified and the BP Links theme files will be much more simple as well. I think this will help more people to “really” skin BP like you have, instead of just changing a few colors here and there like most end up doing.

Maybe we'll revisit in the future and see what's going on with the plugin. I think user adoption will increase considerably if the theme part isn't necessary.... :) Thanks Marshall, gave it a shot but the links page was 404 ing… then noticed there are some theme changes involved… we’ve already sunk so much time into rebuilding themes ( three times ) as BuddyPress has developed that I’m not touching anything now that it works!

On BP networks that aren't very big, most people's wires will very rarely be seen, but typically the blog is. Would love ability to quickly add content using this functionality but have it show up as a blog post.... the thumbnail capability takes a step or two out which may not seem like much, but I could see myself posting a lot more about related articles of interest on our blog if I didn't have to create a thumbnail, add text, etc..... this could be very useful....

I've just written about it on my blog as well, and the author deserves some big donations in my opinion :D This plugin is great!
