Thanks
--Jeff

Yes

Nice one!

next pint's on me.

thanks millions!!!

(LOL @ you = too slow)

Pint version bought. This is v. great.

YAY! AND IM IN THE SCREENSHOTZ!

I kind of love that max's display name in one of the screenshots got the phrase "rip dom passantino" into the App Store.

ok maybe one of the best iPhone apps so far ON IPHONE

Posting from zing litr, works great, thanks!

Happily contributed to Stet's collection of pints.

oh so excited for this, will purchase you a pint soon, thx so much stet!

Now posting ON IPHONE

I am posting from Zing Touch.

Im sure I am just dense but what are the diffs btwn the paid and free zinger? I need to update my tooch sw before i can even use this anyway.

There is also the buy-Stet-a-pint version, Zing Touch, which is £4.99/$7.99 and will probably get new features first. Right now they are identical, except for some wee ads in Zing Lite.

Ah of course. Going blind is me.

Another pint from me, raa!

Oh, and I got it direct from the ON IPHONE app store.

Featurerequests: reordering of boards in the board list, so I can drag my favourites to the top. And those little filled-or-hollow bullet points that tell me whether there are new posts in a thread.

amazing!!

lol @ tipping thred in screenshots - says it all, really

I am rockin this now and it is awwwwesome

can someone please post screenshots here for those of us who are itms:// deficient

I have posted a review.

Stet this is really cool and would be even better if I had an Iphone :-( great work though.

just one question ... what the hell are you drinking at £4.99 a pint????

it's ten bucks for us, more like "buy me a jug"

lol at screenshot #4

prediction: stet's gonna get wasted!

Oh god, he'll turn up at mine and make me drink vodka with a Blue Aftershock mixer.

Anyway, yes. This is truly a piece of aceness.

Stellar.

it's a (I believe) 70/30 split between Apple and stet, so I think it work out to about a pint :^)

stet this is awesome, thanks so much man!

Pint from me! Thank you!

Awesome stuff, thanks very much, everyone! I really appreciate it. I had no idea there were so many iphones on here.

koogs: There's some slightly out-of-date-but-mostly-right screenshots in this post

JimD: Yeah, am working on editing the boards that appear on the start page so you can cut it down to your favourites and reorder etc.

Ace. :)

ok this is pretty amazing -- fantastic work!

can someone please post screenshots here for those of us who are itms:// deficient

I will, happily, because just yesterday I figured out how to do screenshots on an iPhone: as you hold the home button at the bottom, press the sleep button on top. It saves a screenshot to your photoroll, which you can then email to yourself and upload to tinypic.

Give me just a sec...

Oops, I didn't see stet's post just above with the link to screenshots. Yeah, it basically looks like that. The only main difference is that pictures don't appear in the thread - you have to click on the individual posts to see them. Which is actually fine, because it makes picture heavy threads load a lot faster.

Again, great work Stet, this is going to make goofing off on ILX waaaaay easier at work now. :)

Thank you! Yeah, it's never done the images inline -- the performance would be really horrible and slow. I might look at doing an image browser like in Facebook for picture threads, though.

Holy lol at the screenshots

One thing I'd request; a white background on the app logo. It'd look so much nicer on my screen.

Found this thru my app store search. iPhone is being stupid and not letting me install.

An image browser would be fantastic!

D/l'ed the lite version today, will grab the $8 full when I get paid next week. Gotta save money for upcoming trip to NYC next week ON IPHONE.

Just searched found and downloaded today. Awesome!

do any of these profits go to server costs

feature request: landscape keyboard! also more bb code tags

yep, have landscape keyboard working already, also the full set of bbcode will be in 1.1. I've got a few other fixes, but I couldn't upload them while it was in review without losing my place in the queue. App store is frustrating as hell.

just spotted a bookmarking bug too. Will fix

I don't think stet making this app and stet running the server have anything to do with each other, jeff. If it were any other user writing the app would you have asked the question?

hey stet are u going to add admin log at some point?

Wasn't going to -- it's not in the API, so it'd be hard. Same with search, but I'd really like to add that somehow.

Shld also add SB for czn's portable suggestin needs.

I like the message you get when you x post

btw thx for fixing that thing where the menu text was all jumbled

Just weighing in to say I'm on iPhone 5S/12.2 and filmforum bookmarks just fine here.

New version rolling out now, mainly small changes:
- There's a dark mode toggle in the homescreen
- You can now swipe a bookmark left to set it to the latest message, and right to delete it
- You can now share a post as a link, or open it in your browser (tap a message and hit the share button)
- The single message page now follows the font size set in settings, and looks a bit less 2007.
- Zing copes better if messages have corrupt or bad HTML in them, and lets you open the thread in Safari instead of crashing.
- The keyboard's now quite dark in dark mode

Awesome! Have you looked at the rotate bug?

Yes, but haven't fixed it — it doesn't seem to be totally my fault, the tableview is doing something I can't quite explain but I might be able to work around it.

thx, man!

as always, many thanks. it’s a great app anyway and those additions all seem really useful.

All hail the Stet

Excellent update.

This is so good, first time using it and it’s great! Thanks stet!

you left off the “post anyway” feature when xposting, stet, which i was pleased to see tho muscle memory meant i clicked out and posted again anyway obv.

Rats, so I did, and that was the hardest bit to do

- You can now share a post as a link, or open it in your browser (tap a message and hit the share button)
- The single message page now follows the font size set in settings, and looks a bit less 2007.

Lovely update! Thanks stet

yes, thank you stet!

re: the recent update.

Bookmarks have disappeared from Zing for me but I still see them on the web.

same here

Back now. Thanks?!

stet, I saw that you added a few versions back a little Zing link at the top of mobile versions. But it just goes to the main page. Is there any chance you could have the app open web links to the actual thread? This would be a great way of effectively adding a search function.

that's a really good idea, yep

Where is that little Zing link again?

It appears when Apple decides it should, which is a bit opaque

Oh right. Can see it in safari but not in chrome
