Ok so whoever was in charge of the QA and whoever this person's lead was needs some help. This link was provided to me by my buddy Quintin.

Ok so now go ahead and open the link and change whatever the heck you would like for the caption to say because these great guys decided to store the caption in the query string. I would have probably stored it somewhere else just because I'm not a fan of query strings, but hey whatever. So change it and have fun with your friends. For example

So again, an example of what not to do. Enjoy people :)

It doesn't matter how well you structure your code and develop an app. It matters people use it, find it and it's easy to use. Then again, sometimes that is because how well your app is structured. Confusing enough? :)
