I was thinking about that too along with a printable version of the site. I will definitely make them in the future, but it won't be any time soon, sorry. Earliest would be my mid-semester break in June/July.

However, what I can start doing is compiling data on what sized screen (width x height) people have for their phones if they do visit this site on their mobile.

I have a Samsung Galaxy Nexus, which is 720 x 1024.

I have a Samsung Mesmerize i500 (part of the Galaxy series).

Display size: 480 x 800 pixels, 4.0 inches (~233 ppi pixel density)

A mobile site would be awesome in the future!

A mobile version of this forum shouldn't be hard to make, but the rest of the site will be a fair amount of work to make into a mobile version.

I wouldn't worry too much about the rest. The forums would be nice to have mobile. The gallery and all the other stuff doesn't really need to have a "mobile" setting I don't think. I know when I'm on here on my phone, I'm only reading posts lol. And it's not too hard to do, I just have to zoom in.

I'm glad you like it! I was fussy so I changed the shades of blue too.

It's great. Runs very smoothly, and also it's very easy to switch back to the main site if needed/wanted. :)
