board design

the new board design doesn't work very well on windows mobile/IE mobile on my smartphone. i can access the boards and threads fine, but the yellow log in button at the top and the yellow send post buttons i can't scroll to (non-touch screen phone).

Thanks, not sure if we can fix that, but we can look into it.

It doesnt work well on my Windows mobile phone either. I can even scroll to the content. From the top of the page I can scroll for a few minutes and see a few menu buttons, but that is it.

The site already has different style sheets for different media:










You could add a lightweight one for the "handheld" medium:

Typically a site so presented is pretty simple in design, i.e. the demo here: http://www.google.com/mobile/default/news.html

Because of that, putting together a mobile style sheet wouldn't be too much work.

Are there any limits on posting embedded images or anything? It just took about ten tries to post in the montour trail + panhandle trail with all the photos, and it seemed like it went through when I didnt embed anything.


Also did funky things like not letting me see the reply box, adding a second page to the thread with nothing on it.

yeah, don't know what happened to your post. i cleaned it up some. for some reason, the program labeled those posts "spam" and it's fixed now.


as far as i know there is no limit. but i haven't been able to embed video

Awesome, thanks for fixing it. Maybe I visited the same page too many times in a row trying to fix it, so the board thought I was trying to flood it.
