Re: Forum on New Server
In this case, it isn't so much change as accessibility. I use a Galaxy Note 3 so have plenty of screen real estate, but the difference between viewing the forum on a web page or by Tapatalk is massive. Given everything said about Tapatalk, it is obvious that is a no-go, but a responsive format would certainly be great.
The time spent in looking at this is appreciated, as I realise that it must be a ball-breaker that applies only to a minority.

That's a bit nicer. Avatars on the right feels weird, but it looks a bit more modern and it's an order of magnitude more readable on the phone.gravy wrote:I suspect you guys are running the old legacy skin and haven't switched to the one that came with phpbb3?

What a bummer.
I take it there's no scope for donation-driven motivation?

Re: Forum on New Server
I'd contribute to a fund to buy YakYak a mobile skin if it would help. I'd love for it to be responsive, like AtariAge for example. I've found that my forum activity has dropped off a lot.

I've got a responsive theme for phpbb3 on my forum. Works really well :-)

Re: Forum on New Server
Any links? I can have a go this weekend, Sunday probably.
I'm kind of getting sick of phpbb to be honest. It's more of a twat to maintain than I'd like and isn't really under very active development.
I wouldn't mind moving to something like this -> http://www.discourse.org/ but the people left would likely spaz the fuck out

They can even make it look like old iPhone style if people are into the nostalgia thing.
