What markup is used in the descriptions for Skitch?
On most services, there is something that explains what kind of markup is used in text areas - here on GetSatisfaction, there's a little thing underneath the textbox that says "Some HTML allowed" (click on it and it gives you a pop-up window showing you what is allowed). On Skitch, there is no such advice. I've just tried adding some HTML to the description on an uploaded image. No luck. Then I tried Textile. Haven't tried Markdown. I just wanted to add a link to another screenshot that's related. Would it be possible to allow markup in the descriptions and comments? Preferably "some HTML" and not some silly HTML alternative like Markdown or Textile (I've already got about ten different horrific HTML reimplementations stored in my head).
Preferably, with the description, try and copy Flickr's closely. I'd like to end up using skitch.com for screenshots much like I use flickr.com for photos.

Inappropriate?Hi Tom,
Thank you for the considered feedback.
We have intelligent url highlighting, some automated linefeed => br, smart paragraph detection, multiple indenting spaces => 's and a few other tricks to make plain text look as nice as it possibly can, and well, emoticons.
If it is just a URL you are trying to link you just need to paste or type it in there and Skitch.com will automatically make it a hyperlink. We tried to make it simple
Also, if you are linking another Screenshot, you might like to use the "Skitch it! Comment" button, which allows you to 'Skitch it' directly to that Skitch thread.
(we realize the Skitch it! button has a tendency to 'float' around a bit currently sorry, we're working on that)
