BYOND Version:N/A (Website Bug)
Operating System:iOS 4.0
Web Browser:Safari
Applies to:Website
Status: Deferred
This issue may be low priority or very difficult to fix, and has been put on the back burner for the time being.
Descriptive Problem Summary:
Load the members' page on an iPhone. None of the blog summaries are readable as the font appears to be of some fixed size and does not compensate itself with the smaller browser size.

Not sure if this applies to Android phones, but as it is right now, the members' page is unreadable on an iPhone.

I'm not sure there's any way to fix this, but it would help to have a screen shot.

Did this work in the last site iteration? And if so, how usable was it? My thinking is that we really need a separate format for mobile devices, perhaps just displaying plaintext or RSS output.

(difficulties getting a snap from my phone)

I agree that it's not pragmatic to make this change as it would likely affect the PC based experience.

However, I would say an m.byond.com/members site that is mobile compatible might be worthwhile ... especially with a BYOND flash client potential on Android based smartphones and tablets.
