I recommended it too a while ago. Makes perfect sense to support these Twitter meta tags along with the ones Facebook looks for. Tweets with images are so much more likely to get clicks than just plain links. 
If you can’t wait: it’s surprisingly simple to add it to certain templates. For example, I added this to my video database in Pages:
{{\IPS\Output::i()->metaTags['twitter:card'] = 'summary_large_image';}} {{\IPS\Output::i()->metaTags['twitter:site'] = '@TypographyGuru';}} {{\IPS\Output::i()->metaTags['twitter:title'] = $record->_title;}} {{\IPS\Output::i()->metaTags['twitter:description'] = 'Watch this video in the collection of the best typography videos on Typography.Guru';}} {{\IPS\Output::i()->metaTags['twitter:image'] = (string) \IPS\File::get( 'cms_Records', $record->record_image )->url;}}  

You should copy-and-paste any information from ACP > Support > Error Logs or System Logs which can help him diagnose much faster.  

Well, bought KS the other day and I have to say @Flitterkill I'm pretty impressed. I wasn't sure if I'd be that impressed but I am. For the sheer joy of changing my error page alone...

 

Totally off topic.
But I do think a Totalitarian vs Libertarian debate regarding the political leanings of certain plugins would be totally fascinating.  Like iAwards by @-RAW- is such a capitalistic pig for grossly incenticizing performance, or Account Deletion by @Adriano Faria is totally like the Anarchists who can destroy society.  Clearly a great political debate rages on in the Marketplace.

Automation Rules does take some time to understand since it can be a fairly complex system, but within that complexity is a lot of power.  
The basics:
- First define your award in iAwards.  This means uploading the icon, writing the description.  You need to do this first before you can actually trigger the award in Rules.  
- then define the rule in Automation Rule.  This means writing the event, conditions, and actions which trigger the award.

Can't have any discussion of this nature without Simple Points or Carwhile's Points Economy

KS 10 released:
NEW! Option for a more compact star rating display and yes, you can still change the rating on the fly (if allowed) and the text will update. NEW! Move the follow button to where the other buttons are in topic and forum views. Support for other IPS apps too! NEW! Format the follow button to match the size and style of the standard IPS buttons!  NEW! Customize the error page with your choice of Font Awesome icon or swap it out for an image (animated if you like.) Many formatting options for the text displayed too. NEW! On topic view, add a time since last reply blurb that uses conversational language. Support for a number of non-English langauges available (ask in support topic). Star rating and follow can be found under the Global tab. Error page gets its very own tab. Last reply blurb is under the Forums and Topics tab.
To the guy looking for topics with hidden responses, sorry, it didn't make the cut for this release. Also, for KS I'll just allow you to flag a forum where *ALL* the topics will have hidden responses. To have this feature available on a topic-to-topic basis I have to hit the database and I don't think I want to do that with this mod which at the moment has zero database involvement so I'll try to release a separate mod with that feature later on.
Note on the follow button moving. For downloads and gallery, category views (or whatever they are called per app), the row of buttons where you would like to move the follow button to does not get built out unless the user has the ability to add a file or image. The rub is that the entire IPS template is constructed so that I can't get a hook into it to move the follow button. So for those apps you'll have to live with it until IPS fixes the templates (already asked) or I get really really bored for something to do and write a ridiculous chunk of jQuery to maybe possibly do it that way. FYI I think I have another leaner new follow button style inbound as well but the one provided should be fine for now.
Oh, and if you elect to move the follow button but not change the style be aware that since the defualt follow button is not as tall as the regular IPS buttons it's gonna look a little strange alongside those other buttons. You may want to throw some css in your custom file to fix that however you feel like fixing it...
And lastly, KS is getting so big I wonder if I'm under-pricing it. Max I'd bump it to is $15 and the renews are never going up (period). If I do bump it I'll give myself some wiggle room for future holiday sales and what not. Fair warning to those window shopping (not that a whole $5 is gonna make that much difference...). I might, I might not, eh...
This is it short term for KS as far as new features go (pending that hidden response thing above probably) as I have to start finishing up the other five-or-so mods that are sitting here at 85% done.
Here - have some screenshots of the new stuff:



 
PS: Yes, the conversational style time formatting could be applied elsewhere in the suite and it is on the KS to-do list but the underlying jQuery has to get a pull request approved first to allow for turning on/off the initial prefix/suffix words otherwise it would say "last reply" everywhere which really looks silly when you see that spammed down the length of a column. 
PPS: I think I have a cleaner, more ambient, follow button format inbound as well if you don't like the new full box style. Here:

I like that better. I'll either swap it out for what is there now or make this another option.

I have also suggested it months ago for system consistency across apps.

I've suggested this before myself, and it would be a helpful and visual indication of the difference in categories.  
I used this feature to really customize my forums, and it really helped each forum board differentiate themselves.  

Worked with @ehren. tonight to track down some ipsfocus themes vs. KS problems.
Short version: KS works fine with ipsfocus themes. There are occasionally some theme blips that pop up - if you run with ipsfocus stuff and have a problem just yell, the fix is almost certainly a tiny bit of css code in your custom.css to fix the problem (duplicate avatar in userbar is the one I encountered). Granted, as with any theme, once core elements have been moved or duplicated, plugins may no longer be able to hook in correctly to do what they need to do so you will need to expect some loss of functionality the more the theme has been altered away from the IPS default.
However, as is the case with all IPS 4x stuff, you MUST keep your themes up to date. If you somehow are running 7 or 8 or more point versions behind since you updated your theme and your theme provider has provided updated themes - what's your excuse? 
The problem site this evening was running a number of ipsfocus themes, two of which crashed when KS was active in the plugin list. With KS disabled those two themes resumed working. How and why? No idea. Hell, I have no idea how they functioned at all those themes hadn't been updated in months which is an eternity in IPS time. More power to you if those out-of-date themes still function on the latest versions of IPS but once you start adding on plugins on top of those ancient themes who knows when something is going to tip the theme system over the edge and crash out.
KS 10 soonish. 
 

After jumping in to DangerDick's site a moment ago I realised I didn't alter the plugin description to alert people to this.
So, FYI for everyone, be sure after installation, on the list of plugins in the acp, grab KS and drag it all the way to the top.
The order of plugins does matter - it is the order in which they are built out, and KS does a lot of things. If you have KS on the bottom it may or may not break something enough to bork the site, not through any fault of it's own, but becasue a plugin above it is expecting x, y, or z and now it is not there, so the theme/site throws an error. The other reason is that KS may just over-write any changes a plugin above it has made, making it appear that that plugin doesn't work at all. 

Thanks for the update and continued maintenance to v1.0.7.7

@onlyME Thanks for the update and continued maintenance.

I've been debating how to respond to this paragraph for 3 weeks, since the integration / fragmentation between IP.Board and IP.Gallery is truly a perplexing problem for me.  You bring up some questions that I'd like to address, even if I can only begin to scratch the surface.
For my particular community, I genuinely don't have a good reason as to why I still use image-only forums AND still offer IP.Gallery.  I actually have duplicate content areas for TWO subjects in both IP.Board and IP.Gallery (yes, it drives me crazy), and it really just depends upon the uploader where he wants to be (which is why I'm a fan of seamless integration either direction to show media).  
Some general observations, in no particular order:
In general, the forum tends to be the main 'hang out' area with more activity, so it makes sense to offer space there first.  You just don't get the same feeling of 'activity' in IP.Gallery, so members are naturally more attracted to the forums.   Viewing gallery images is more of a solo activity. Forums are great for progressing image topics. where new updates are posted in new replies. Galleries are great for a curated showcase.    My personal difficulty with the enormity of this question - how to consume, view, and share content in a multi-app platform - is how you can change your interaction with the same content through multiple perspectives.  For example, you can interact by publishing module:
IP.Board -- with categories to publish about Content A, Content B IP.Gallery -- with categories to publish about Content A, Content B It's equally valid to interact by theme:
Content A -- with permission to publish to IP.Board, IP.Gallery Content B -- with permission to publish to IP.Board, IP.Gallery  
Ultimately though, I decided a long time ago I shouldn't force my members to choose one app or the other.  IP.Board and IP.Gallery both equally valid places to upload, since they can both still serve the fundamental purpose of being an image container.   

I'm in the same position as @superj707 where I have forums meant to showcase iimage, and then I have Gallery.  
Since the underlying purpose is the same, the it makes sense to be able to 'push' content into the Gallery.  
There are multiple ways to implement and they're all acceptable.  In fact, the grand variety of ways to combine the two apps is what makes the integration such a fascinating and compelling feature!
- you can define uploads in the forum topic  to go to Gallery
- you can define uploads to be pushed into a virtual album that can be viewed in Gallery as well
- you can define a hybrid where you choose to upload to both Gallery and to My Attachments
- you can simply Insert Album into the forum post 
- you can upload to My Attachments per user, which lends more to a social experience tird around users
- users automatically get a Community Album by default
Etc.  I don't actually care how IPS implements the cross-over promotion (that's what we pay them for, so they can figure it out, right?) So long as they implement something. But right now we have nothing.  
Will it perhaps require expanded permissions of categories and Albums in Gallery? Perhaps.  Admins of users will need to decide if they allow forum uploads (or on a broader scale, if they allow any community image).  Will it also require expanded settings in forum topics or in forum boards? Probably.  
Theres a ton of complexity in this that I can't even begin to understand.  But its in that complexity that there's the most potential for growth and entire sets of new features.  
 

There's actually a disconnect among all the content in all the apps but that's a larger discussion. Each app is a silo of information and is a problem that plagues a multi-app community.
The OP brings up a powerful example of a very unique weakness in the IPS suite.  Admins often have a fractured content base because images in IP.Board have no way of relating to images in IP.Gallery. It's a major, fundamental concern that I share as well.  
The OP shared one solution: to combine image content from forums and gallery into user content.  
I'm more a fan of generating a 'virtual' album in IP.Gallery where the images are linked from the forums.  
In any case, the cross promotion of content is one area that IPS hasn't even started to address but is a very real problem on complex multi app communities.  

Hi, they can do this from the account settings.

Minor suggestions on existing features:
When IPS update is critical security update, colorize fa-download icon as red.  This better matches with the red pulse.   In your settings descriptions, can you include choices on the different button classes?  (Later on I realized I could go to my ACP > Customization > Themes > Button Colors, and kind of guess at the buttons classes.  I'm rather impressed with my own ingenuity, but ... I'd rather be lazy.  And I can't be the only admin that can't recite all the choices for IPS for button classes.)  

Check your permissions, then +Create

Thanks for the update and continued development.
