Hi! I'm working on a style for EoFF on mobile phones/PDAs/small screens because BoB's Simplified isn't cutting it.

You should be able to Select MobilEoFF from the drop down menu.

Things that I want:
A list of what users want to be able to easily access on EoFF via cellular device. What links are useless, etc.
Details on how navigation works on typical cell phones. All I have for testing is an itouch which I realize is probably different than a lot of interfaces xD


Things I do not want:
Users on large screens. This is not for you; we have lots of pretty styles for you.
ideas on colors/design; that will be last xD The first part is stripping off all the cruft!

This skin will be for you guys, so if you use EoFF from your cell phone or PDA, you better say what you need!

Hmm I'd be up for testing. I quite often access EoFF on my phone. You should make a widget, they are all the rage about now like totally.

3GS has no problem loading images fast, it's just fitting the frames into a mobile friendly size I suppose.

Aren't you worried that trying to access a forum on a cell phone will cause all those who make the attempt to go irreversibly, criminally insane?

Wait I just asked that of someone with a Cthulhu avatar. Never mind, as you were.

phones are easier to lug around than laptops! and sometimes you just cba with a computer lab

(I am at school from 9AM to 4PM... I have to do something.)

I'm very glad that you're doing this. Few things I noticed so far! I can't find any links to subforums, either on the forum index or in the parent forum. I can't view spoilers at all since they are entirely reliant on JavaScript. The latter is of course a BBCode issue and not a template one, but it's something to consider in terms of mobile-friendliness.

It's a little hard on my phone to tell read from unread. I'd like to see clearer indication of this.

Edit: I'd like to see signatures disabled in this skin, but avatars can stay iyam

not display many threads in each forum.
axe signatures
axe avatars
axe post and thread count on forums index.
axe post count for threads? I don't know, it's just every table gets pressed underneath eachother, so it's very much to scroll past.

Screw mobile phones, I'm using this style on my computer!

I hardly feel we need View Count
