Having a screenshot prevents Tumblr exports from including comment
When a link has both a screenshot and a comment, only the screenshot gets posted to Tumblr.
Example of problem:
First link on http://www.mento.info/shalunov/archiv...
has a comment ("Typical Senior Software Engineer at Google makes $120k.") and gets exported to
http://blog.shlang.com/post/38076304/...
without the comment.
Note how the problem seems to occur before posting: http://www.mento.info/shalunov/links/... already doesn't have the comment.
Comments on links without images work fine.

Inappropriate?Another user noted this issue as well and the root of the matter is that Tumblr's "image" type only has one field for the caption/title, but no additional field for a note or description.
To test an alternative, we enabled the following for the other user: posting the title and description as part of the caption using additional HTML tags (which make them appear like Tumblr headings and note fields).
I've temporarily enabled this alternative for your account as well -- let me know if the styling works out properly for you and whether you'd like to keep it that way.

Inappropriate?Greg,
I was waiting for the occasion to test it, but then realized I don't really like Tumblr export. I bookmark more links than I want in my Tumblr, and message duplication through different channels becomes a problem.
Sorry I didn't get to test this out, and thanks for all the hard work!

Inappropriate?No worries! We're actually (the royal "We", that is) working on a more selective Export feature, by which you can send links to "Tumblr" just as you can send them to "Twitter" today -- that should make it easier to post just certain links instead of all. More control is always good :)
