Just wanted to send a message of appreciation. My boyfriend clued me into imgur a couple months ago, and I've since started visiting reddit as well. I also requested, and have received, an imgur sticker. THANK YOU for what you do.

Why is my image quality reduced?
There are two types of compression for images: lossless and
lossy. Lossless compression will
reduce the file size without making any visible changes at all. It simply gets
rid of unnecessary data that's causing the image to be bigger, but the image
will look exactly the same. Lossy compression reduces
the size of the image much more than lossless, but it can also change the
appearance of the image.
Imgur uses both types of compressions. Every image that goes in is compressed by lossless compression because there's no reason not to. It reduces the size of the images with no downside.
Lossy compression is only
used when the image is above a certain file size (5MB for pro, 1MB for
standard).
So, your image is mostly like experiencing lossy compression and therefore losing a the original quality. You can upgrade to a pro account to avoid this with images up to 5MB.
How often are the stats of the image (views/bandwidth) refreshed?
Multiple "View entire album, __ images total" links

Several links to the same thing, and yes they all work (or at least the random one I sampled). Refreshing resolved it, but nonetheless it could be looked into. Probably just lag. I don't know.
Can we have comment permalinks on timestamp instead of dropdown?
I cannot seem to copy them without clicking on them. And Opera does not refresh the URL in the Address Bar on clicking on them. Linking the timestamps is generally the standard. Would be nice if this can be done.
Search for comments
It seems that the search feature searches for image titles only. It'd be nice if there was an option to include search for text in comments. Example: Someone made a funny comment several weeks ago and I didn't comment or like the image so I can't refer back to it via my profile. I'd like to search for the comment, and the comment along with the picture would show up. Brilliant idea and not too hard to incorporate. I should work for Imgur... :)
Lower Resolution Album Covers via API
When getting the information about an album, only the high resolution cover image ID is made available. I'm using this as a 100x100 thumbnail for the album and it's sucking up unnecessary bandwidth and taking a while to load. Would love to the different links for the different cover sizes.
Account Settings
For albums, the image_src link points to an HTML file instead of an image file, causing thumbnail previews to fail.
