Inappropriate?That doesn't sound good, Jeff. Sorry it's not working. Can you remember if you had network access at the time?

Inappropriate?Actually, it seems to crash on most all pictures when you tap on the small picture to be able to view the larger picture that is provided in the person's profile.
This seems to have started happening since the last update of Brightkite about a day or two ago. -
Inappropriate?Yes, I had WiFi access. I've recreated the issue after a complete power-cycle of the ipod touch as well.
The symptoms are that you click on the icon of the photo, the photo seems to download, then milliseconds after the picture in high resolution is displayed the app crashes. -
Inappropriate?OK, after more experimenting, it seems that only pictures that are very high resolution cause the app to crash. So, pictures that are of dimensions of approximately 3056px × 2292px or approximately 818.2 KB in size cause this crash to occur

Inappropriate?Sounds like a memory problem. I'll look into what we can do about that. Thanks again for your help, Jeff

Inappropriate?That's what I was thinking once I figured out that it was related to large image files. Not sure how you would prevent the problem aside from preventing large image files from being used for profile pictures or to do some real-time image resizing on the server side before they are sent to the iphone/ipod.
I’m thankful
