2 months ago, I posted asking if people would use an app for competitive selfies.
Two posts and 18,000 upvotes later, apparently yes. So, after much programming, a design overhaul, and beta testing with an amazing group of enthusiastic Imgurians, I present to you...
Pickle! An app by Imgurians, for Imgurians
It's quirky, it's funny, it's occasionally disturbing, and of course there's a front page that the best challenges compete to get on.
I hope you guys like it! We've put a lot of hard work into this little guy.
Get it for free for iPhones and Android here: http://www.trypickle.com
//Edit: Also - It's a Facebook login right now for speed of development reasons, but the app never posts anything to your account. More login options coming soon!

OMG IT'S OUT! I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!!
FUNKAPUS
I wish you didn't have to sign in with Facebook, as I do not want to sign in with Facebook
FinnishBlood
Oh I was hoping you would deliever. Hate pickels, but I expect this app to be amazing. Don't let me down OP.

I feel like we helped make this happen. It's like watching our baby take it's first steps...

Bah, everything is Facebook login now. Oh well, maybe later~

I have a new addiction
Vespasious
Yeah, I downloaded the app, signed in with facebook, but there's nothing to proceed with from there. Just a blank screen that says "FB 1/2
Tahingada
Same with me :(
Vespasious
Authorized" and like 2 other links. The app does nothing for me though. iPhone 5c iOS
MafiaFace
It's because you suck.
Tilden
It has been great seeing this since this was first posted on imgur.
cxrinx
It's like watching a child grow up. Off to college for the little guy.
TheTTikler
That is serious dedication. People always want OP to deliver on promises. Well OP designed a freaking app!
RaefWolfe
I've never opened emails faster than the ones I open from the Pickle team.
CaptainBlockedPunt
If you haven't downloaded it yet, get on it! It's a lot of fun to judge a bunch of people fairly arbitrarily.
SarahJessicaParker
It won't be great seeing all the best images replaced with penises
IamMelonLordeYaYaYa
I don't have Facebook though :c
tactactacooo
Me either.
Sorry4BeingCanadian
OP: I downloaded it and love it but can you develop a way to report select inappropriate pics and groups? Currently you can only report 1/2
Sorry4BeingCanadian
2/2 a whole set in a group instead of an individual picture, and I don't want to report innocent users.
IFancyATickleOnMyPickleForANickle
Holy shit you actually went all the way through with it, unlike my life goals and plans, and dinner, and getting off imgur...
Cheshiresteeth
But why the Facebook

Crashes every time I try to log in...

I feel like there should be a camera area separate from camera/gallery area...
Tilden
I downloaded it on both iOS and on an android emulator it is amazing.
bearvodkabalalaika
its pretty entertaining
spidercop
Couldn't agree more, immediately one of my favorite apps
Roboteer
Literally after I saw this, I got the app and spent like 2 hrs on it. Thank you!
FinnishBlood
This is a kind of self promotion I'm ok with.
kmikl
I've put a cat tax exemption in for this one. Selfies/self-promo... oh lawd the paper work.
NationalistCanadianMooseWarrior
It's cool, imgur related, and free.
Whispererr
Dam right! He said we made it!
DeangeloVickers1
After just reading that post about doxxing, it's super refreshing to see this.
OrangeJuiceDream
Agreed
Moogin
What is that?
kmikl
Doxxing? It's when a person's actual identity and information is released so people can harass you, IRL.
trolololono
You mean selfie promotion

And i dont like it anymore thanks

Half the pictures are just random shit right now anyway

I would be more inclined to support it if there was a Windows Phone version. How do we show you that there is enough support?

theres more like 15 of us! get yo facts straight!!
SnideOctopus
Good question! We'd need to hire another developer, so we'd need some funding - if you can gather the troops, we'll do it!
balcsida
Troops are here! (I'm a deputy editor in chief of the largest hungarian Windows fansite)
SnideOctopus
What luck! PM me or send an email to [email protected]

SnibbleTiggits
you could always just make a fake fb account to play. i've been using a fake fb with 0 friends for things like this for years.
SvarvSven
Y mate U can't go on FB and have no friends... jk
UserSubrero
I have a fb just so I can play those ridiculous fb games and not spam my friends with it, only other players who want the game spam lol

Lmao I got hooked on this game called Kitchen Scramble. You play as a food truck chef and cook your way through towns. It's silly

Don't worry! We made it Facebook login for speed of development reasons, but we'll soon be building in other login options.
WhyDidIJustTypeThis
How soon is ``soon``? I kinda wanna try it out, looks great!
JadedFreighter
You should add this info into the post.
maybeaforestheartambassador
why you don't have the green op next to your nick?
freedommisunderstood
As a developer... i am suspicious... login templates is something that every development tool is coming with now days... just dump facebook.
classyfancygay
Please do a social Savannah type deal with an imgur login
MadamPuddifoot
Yes!! Or, you know... No sign up? I'd that possible?
JamEngulfer
Problem with that is you can't ban people, it makes it way easier for people to post spam and crap like that
MadamPuddifoot
oh. :( boo.
xBurrito
Glad to hear it I wouldn't wan a make a fb :c
Ishdakitty
Can't wait!
pterodactylnoises
How soon is soon? Chop chop OP, we wanna play!!
Astralsleeps
Good. Ill keep it installed for a little bit then. Never had facebook and never want one.
dancingdan42
In right there with you.
sweetnaivety
Just make one specifically for the purpose of logging into random apps and websites? I use mine mostly to get free stuff from games, too.
sweetnaivety
same with twitter! I got a free dragon for Dragon's Prophet on twitter!
AnalBeard
People think I'm crazy when I say that.
NationalistCanadianMooseWarrior
I don't. I occasionally scroll through my news feed just to see what's up and.. Nope. (Probably doesn't help that I'm in high school)
weeman5872
I just took a look at my news feed, and it's a mix of crappy Vines, College Humor, and old stuff stolen from Imgur/Reddit.
sk8tergater
I stopped looking at mine about a week ago, deleted the app off my phone, and I feel so free. Didn't realize what a time dump it was
koopaya
You aren't crazy. I used mine extensively in college... but now I never do.
aelita
It just means it's useless to you. I do have a facebook account (curiosity about 5 years ago), but I never use it.
bobon123
Maybe people think you are crazy because of the Anal Beard. ..
AnalBeard
I don't go flaunting it around like some animal.
mandapanda1125
The people I know that don't have one are either questionable or not allowed to have one.
PoppinLochNessHopster
As a questionable, I don't have one either.
AnalBeard
I have Twitter and Instagram, and I'm perfectly content. I just never wanted Facebook for the first couple years and haven't needed on since
freedommisunderstood
Let me guess, you are 12?
