Just loaded up 1.10.2-8 and it crashes on open every time. Posting from 1.10.2-7 :3:

Edit: Deleted awful and installed #8 clean and editing from it right now.

They used to call me tricky-kid, I lived the life they wish they did.


I'm wondering if this issue has something to do with the app or my ipad. It seems like whenever I load a gif heavy thread the app starts to stutter. It'll open up the PYF meme thread or the Weed thread in TCC and it will load a few frames of a gif, then the app starts to freeze and I can't scroll. If I let the page sit open for like 30 seconds it ends up sorting itself out. Browsing in Chrome seems to work fine.

For what it's worth I've got an ipad 2 running 6.1, and I'm using the 1.10 awful app.

Might not fix your problem but you should update to 1.10.1, regardless.

1.10.2-10 crashes on launch, every time. Going to try reinstall of it fresh. Currently app is dead on original ipad from update at least

Ok, yes. Reinstall fixed it, though it took a few launches to get the forums list.

Whatever changes went in today broke my awesome font scaling option too. :smith:

Though it's probably because I declared something wrong or whatever. I ran out of time to look into it.

When i did, i saw Ganker's post, and it was empty - so i clicked on view profile and it crashed.
Then, i reopened the app and posted, which caused it to crash.
Now just opening the thread causes it to crash. Other threads open fine. :(

Random question regarding long-tap inserting images and URLs: would it be possible to have the option on both to "insert from clipboard" as the source? Like how img does it now with "from library" and "from camera", but it just dumps the current clipboard text into the appropriate spot. URL can use CB as source and insert the cursor between the tags.

Fixed, thanks! Ganker's custom title has a weird <size:8> pseudo-HTML tag that I've never seen before, and I guess libxml doesn't like it much.

Yes, the Nolan Waite one. Wouldn't it have been quicker to check the OP or just search "Awful" in the App Store?

One can hardly ignore the Taoist implications of "Fuck it, Dude. Let's go bowling."

Just a quick bug report: for some reason, every time I load page 211 in the Cinema Discusso general chat thread (I think it's titled something about aliens right now), the app crashes. It might be because there are a ton of YouTube links on the page, but I'm not sure. No big deal, but thought I would pass it along. (I'm on an iPhone 4, newest version of the app, if it helps.)

Hmm, I'm not seeing the same crash. Do you see any of the page before it crashes? Like can you scroll down a bit, then it'll crash?

Don't blame Imgur, it's probably Awful loving things up. Can you put the original image up somewhere and I'll take a look?

The first time, I was able to read most of the page. Every time since then, it crashes almost immediately. Like I said, every other page is fine - not sure why this one seems difficult. It's not a big deal, but I thought I'd let you know.

Just incase you didn't realise, they're both 4:3 aspect ratios, it just squashed it the opposite way rather than preserving and scaling both dimensions.

Maybe something to do with the way iPhone makes every photo landscape with a rotation specified in the metadata?

Testing a landscape photo:




This one came out fine, and uploaded at the original dimensions.


edit: Can I suggest a resize option? Maybe a prompt asking for the width and defaulting to something reasonable? Timg makes you still have to download an entire huge image. Posting 8MP images inline is a little silly.
