So you replaced the blue whale icon next to the username with a dull, gray avatar?

The whale is still there, but for existing "owners" it expired (we were all given MobyPro on the same day, I'd assume). You can restore it manually from the MobyPro page.

Yeah, at the very least we'll offer a yearly option w/ discount.

What option(s) would you like to see?

Paypal, even if it would be more expensive (transaction cost), I would prefer it to avoid CC.
