Make the forums for mobile/tablet friendly?

Just a suggestion.

 

I was wondering is there any chance to transform the forum... so that it is more mobile and tablet/ipad user friendly? considering mobile and tablet use will soar over the next few years.

 

I occasionaly visit the forums using my tablet, i just find it abit frustracting at times with the loading issues etc.

 

Thanks

It's pretty tablet friendly as it is. As for mobile, there's not really much point as you'd just get complaints from people for loss of functionality, despite the limitations of mobile formatting a site.

The Removal of flash code is is all that remain but its happening to slow as content providers currently prefer to lose money over paying out for HTML and Javascript conversions of their site as the people whom actualy make the sites are to old school.

 

Mobiles won't be supported untill Android FIXES the minimum requirements for all devices including min Screen size and memory. but google are to scared to do that as it will drive Hardware makers off android and back to pure Linux. Webkit builds on the current devices are to buggy.

Try uploading a photo from your computer HDD to this site with flash block on or flash disabled...

The forums work fine on my Android tablet.

 

Just set your browser's user agent to "Desktop" and it works like on a PC. :smileyhappy:
