New mobile theme

I'm liking the new mobile theme. It's better than the apps. However it does need some cleaning up. The menu text (?) is all over the place. So sometimes the actual posts are super small and it's basically useless fluff on a mobile device. Simplicity rules when going mobile.

I can upload a pic later.

*edit* I might like the colors and the smaller fonts better on the regular site. But I appreciate the effort and would like to see more development to the mobile theme.

Plus the layout just doesn't really seem to be working yet. It's hard to find how to create a new post and I can't attach anything.

Which mobile platform are you using (OS and phone)?

While that's being fine tuned for reading purposes you may prefer the archive on the mobile platform: https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...cooper-forums/

I must say that the mobile theme has improved a bit. I still have som remarks.

1. There is no easy way to get to the forum from the home page. I first have to click a link and then I can click home to go to the forum. That does not make sense.

2. The scaling seems off still. The content does not adapt to the width of the screen. Sometimes the content is much narrower or wider than the screen. The latter especially occurs when there's images. Often it's not the images that are wide, but the yellow bar that says its been cropped.

If these issue could be fixed, then we're a long way towards a good working mobile theme!
