I've noticed that tipsters don't "fade in" when there is a tipster that is currently fading out. This behaviour is reproduced on the online demonstration (you have to move the mouse fast to another tipster of the same type). I'd rather have the fade out of the old one be immediate, and have the normal fade in for the new one -- Is there an easy way to fix this?

We're going live in August, so I'll be donating after we've worked out the kinks (and of course before we go live). I have a few other issues but since they're not reproduced on your demos, I'm trying to work them out myself.

There's only one <div> for each named tip object, the script re-uses them for each new tip you display, so you're right -- two can't fade simultaneously. There are 2 solutions:

1) Use multiple different tip objects. You might want to automate a means for creating them?
2) Send me an email, I have a fancy new tip script in the works that uses unique elements for each tip and can fade several at once with no problems. I'll send you a copy to test out.

Good luck - Angus.
