I also suggest a link to allow to optionally view the standard version.
Yep - will do.

Seriously. I'm using ie8, tried both compatability mode & normal.

However, chrome works just fine.

Anyone else having any problems like this? I know in the past, we have suggested NOT using IE8 because MicroSoft is just too stupid to understand the intelligence going on here at VGOF. But if you must, you must...

I'd definitely like to get this fixed though.

No problems here Rick. I'm on my laptop using Firefox.

P.S. I would NEVER go back to IE!

Don't loose any sleep over it. If I have to use Chrome, that's fine. I've been ignoring it so this will make me get used to it.

@KaosDad Just giving you a hard time.

FF works fine for me. IE8 also works. I haven't seen the mobile version yet, but I presume it looks different?

VGOF Mobile works on my iPhone. Although the layout is better than the main sight, it still is a lot of scrolling. New post page would be great. Log in should towards the top.

that *is* strange. I just clicked the style=2 link above and viewed the mobile layout from my laptop. What about on your phone? how does it look there?

Rick I see that you are working on the system and makeing everything better for the people that love these forums. I would suggest another appeal for some donations for the work that you put into the system. Me I am a dinosaur at this stuff and only use a computer and not very well at that but I enjoy the hell out of the forum each morning and during the day. Can't get cheaper entertainment.

I see the difference on my phone, but I get the normal page if I click the link above on my PC.

Bill, I appreciate your sentiment. The Donate link is at the top left of the forum all the time for folks to donate as they see fit. I don't want to continually ask for donations like some other sites. I don't want to annoy anyone with it.

I do hope that people who get something out of the forum will take a minute to help out from time to time through donations, but I try not to be overbearing with donation requests.

I do like the new mobile style though. Maybe I should donate too! :clap:

I like the new setup. Great job. I never had a problem with the site on my iPhone before though. I guess I'm in the minority here now, but I lovethe iPhone. I manually sync, I don't get auto updates And I'm still rocking an old version to fight off the constant apple invasion. Thanks jailbreak!

Ah, good. You should be able to view from your pc now by going to http://vagunforum.net/?style=2 though, it displays slightly different in pc vs. mobile device. So far I have good feedback from a PSP user, a Blackberry user and a DroidX user. Any other mobile platforms anyone would care to report on?

I was browsing on a few iPads this afternoon after upgrading them to the 4.2 iOS. It looks pretty good to me on the Safari browser.

I might just have to pickup one when the iPad II comes out.

Next week, I'm going to test access on a Samsung Tab :thumbsup:
