This new site looks absolutely great on a phone now.
Thank you :)

I agree, thanks for the update.  Now I can see all those pictures that get blocked at work when I'm creeping the forum on my lunch.

Any chance of a theme option with similar size to the old one for those of us who aren't on mobile?

Everything feels far too large now.

Try zooming out in your browser. It actually does help, I'm not just being sarcastic. ;)

Just gotta give a shout-out for the ongoing tweaks to the site design.  It's just looking better and better!  Thanks for putting in the time for making our experience here such a pleasure!

While true, I feel the site should cater to all users, instead of making it more convenient for some to the detriment of others.

Especially since the post field text is roughly the same as it was under the old theme. I can have posts look fine while perusing but small while posting, or large while perusing and normal while posting as it stands.

At least while using Firefox 42.0b2

Well, I would hardly say that the change in width is "losing out".   We could reduce the width of the PC version -- but a wider width was actually CHOSEN because it makes more space available in the site.

You can always use a localize CSS (I believe firefox and chrome allow you to do that....)

.forumwidth is the identifier....  change it to 80% or 70%

Overall it works well for me. I have noticed the graflex on top jumps up and down sometimes depending on
if you are logged in or viewing as a guest.
Also the default blue theme doesn't load the colored bars until you select another color and then go
back to the blue.

Other than that it seems to be working :cool:

Both of those issues should be corrected if you clear your browser cache, yoda... ;)

set to clear when I quit each time but it is actually fitting better today than
on Wednesday so I think some of it was happening while you were tweaking things.

It all looks groovy to me :afro:

Oh, I see...   There is still a tweak to be made on the lower width variation...  I'll do that tomorrow
