is there any way to get to the end of a long thread from the mobile version? or at least bookmark the full version on a mobile device? I bookmarked it but every time I reopen it goes back to mobile, and I can't figure out a way to get to the end of the sick thread without just clicking next ten thousand times.

I think the only workaround is to 'mark forum as read' and then click the thread title. Clicking thread titles always takes you to first unread on the mobile version. It's definitely a deficiency of the mobile skin.

mobile skin sounds gross

I'd like to be able to turn off avatars and images and signat- wait, where are all the signatures? Huh, now I don't even remember if I ever had one.Also, it's too wide. If it's not maximized you have to scroll back and forth instead of it condensing it for you.But I think it looks pretty and all that.

What do you mean by it's too wide? The screen width should fit fine for you, unless you are running a very low resolution monitor.Signatures seem to have all stayed, you must not have had one.The mobile skin is good imo because of it's speed and that its quite easy to read. However, yes VB is correct that unless you mark all as read it'll take you to the last unread post when you click on a title. Other IPB owners have complained to Invision regarding this, hopefully a change is coming.

If by low resolution you mean "cheap and old," that's certainly very possible.I don't see anybody's signature. Which, you know, is fine since I don't want to see them anyway.Minor quibbles though. Good job on the [insert technical jargon].

[iZuma]

I see signatures. perhaps yours were, oh I don't know, already turned off? what do ya think, maybe?

Probably, Mr. SmartyPants. So now tell me, where do I do that? Because I bet that's the same place I can turn off your stupid avatar.Actually, I like the iZuma one. And the classic Shake avatar is classic. But still!

DJ Vu -> Manage Ignore PrefsAt the top there is a checkbox for "Ignore all signatures when reading topics". You can also ignore individual user's signatures if you want.

Here's another tip for those of you who had difficulty maintaing eye contact with the screen given that font...You can override the CSS on FCP with your own stylesheet. For instance, on Safari you can use the UserCSS plugin to set your own styles for various websites: http://code.grid.in.th/If you set a rule like the following, you will get a nicer font back for FCP:

body { font: normal 13px helvetica,arial,sans-serif !important;}

looks like this:

Oh hey, check that out.

I'll be removing the Ubuntu font across the board and also increasing the font-size a notch. It's on my plate, I just haven't had the time yet to really fine tune some of the skins items. It's been a long week.

The option for members to change the # of posts/page had been removed in this version of Invision because apparently there had been a lot of complaints about users who have their setting at 40 posts/page sending links to others who are using a board's default of 20 posts/page. Basically they end up landing on a different page all together. I think that's nonsense as there is the option to just click the post # to get a direct link to a specific post, they should have made that a group permission for members imo.

[Governator]

Hit refresh to load the updated stylesheet and the fonts should be much better.

This is terrible news.

you'll get over it newt.the imbedded video thing is awesome. I didn't even realize that's what I was looking at until I was half way through the video and was like "oh, shit, I'm still in the thread..."the lack of 40 posts per page does seem stupid but it doesn't really bother me. personally, only things I would ask for would be a way to create an icon on my iphone desktop that goes to the full page (not the mobile page) or an update that lets you pick pages, and it will be nice when we can choose different working skins, but neither of those are a big deal to me. I would have liked to have seen gov's face when the servers crashed or whatever happened.
