A Very Lightweight Style For Small Screen Devices (Cell Phone/iphone/Mobile/Android)


Date: 5 January 2011 | Posted by: mkwingzero
A lightweight *forum only* style aimed at small screen devices such as Windows Smartphones, Nokias and even iPhones.
It has VERY low bandwidth requirements - 15 times less on my site - 20K as opposed to 300K for forumhome.

*Forum Only* - done a very small amount of rough work on CMS templates a simple single column CMS *could* be created to work with this style without too much effort.

However not sure if you can have a different CMS layout dependent on which style you are using?


This is an update to the mobile style previously released.
The changes are predominantly aesthetic to take advantage of larger screens.

It is also much easier to change colour schemes by editing the commented CSS file.
