Typing over 140 chars now limited, please revert Jeremy Comer

Jeremy Comer 10 years ago 0
Hey Imgur

I know we've never been able to submit more than 140char comments, but we could type past that limit and then edit the comment to fit. But as of a few hours ago I've noticed that when you hit 140 chars text entry is blocked.

This is really annoying! Being able to write what you thought and then edit it to fit was a really nice feature. It's much easier to edit a sentence when you've written the whole thing (reword a few things, replace "and"s with & etc). But now you have to edit while in the process of trying to write it.

I don't think this is a bug (although you guys do seem to be having some issues right now, comments in gallery profile not loading, comment points not updating), it feels more like an intentional change. So Please, pretty please with a small kitten on top, can you revert the text entry of comments back to how it was.

Thanks

ps (since around the time of the code breaker challenge, I can't leave imgur open in Chromium browser as it start using aroung 40% CPU. Firefox is fine though, but I have other FF issues that I'll report later if I have time).

The 'New and Improved' Imagur sucks, man.

PLEASE go back to the old version with pages rather than this infinite scrolling crap. I love imagur but not like this. This just makes me sad.

What are the 'procedures' in place for downvoting? Because it is rampant daily. Maybe have a limit of how many times a person can downvote in a day, and undoing the downvote does not add back to the daily bucket.

Maybe a limit of 20 a day or something. And even if you downvote something and undo it, it still counts towards your daily limit.

Messages & Votes

Any way you can check my profile/settings for glitches in the matrix? I have not received any votes or messages in 3 days. I usually rack em up by the bunches, so I'm concerned something might be wrong. Thx!

For the past couple weeks, whenever I upvote it opens the my profile's gallery in a mini-window as if I were opening a picture. Anyone else having this problem. I'm on chrome.

Are you logged in when trying to upvote? If so, try disabling add-ons and then let me know what happens.

Trouble signin using the API

shaqman 13 years ago 0
Hi,

I am working on a plugin for windows live writer using .net. The plugin tasks is just to upload images to imgur instead of the default location.

So far, I have successfully created the code to upload using anonymous API's but when I am trying to use the OAuth version, it seems I couldn't sign in.

Here is the error:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><error><message>The consumer_key "xxx" token "yyy" combination does not exist or is not enabled.</message><request>/2/signin</request><method>get</method><format>xml</format><parameters>oauth_consumer_key = xxx, oauth_n</parameters></error>
Currently I am signing in with the access token that have been retrieved and stored. Am I doing this correctly?

Anyone know something that I might be doing wrong?

Thanks.

Regards,
shaqman


Update:
It turns out that I did a logical error. The inputted key was the wrong one. Now I've fixed it and got another error.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><error><message>No username was sent</message><request>/2/signin</request><method>get</method><format>xml</format><parameters>oauth_consumer_key = xxx, oauth_n</parameters></error>

Honestly, I dont understand whoch username should I send. I mean, the point of using OAuth is to delegate the users identity to a key, right? So, I don't really know which username to send or how to retrieve the username.

No index. They directly correlate with Reddit, so if there is a Reddit subcategory, there is automatically an Imgur one. I'm not sure if they have an index, but you could check over there.

Random Function

normilet 12 years ago updated by Sarah 12 years ago 0

Hi. Just want to say, love the site. Just wondering if its possible to improve or update the random image function? It seems like the same pictures repeat several times in a relatively short duration browse, which probably shouldn't happen considering the amount of images hosted on your site. Thanks very much for your time.
