Hello fellow KoolSourcers:

I updated the mobile site today after I realized how messed up it was (I got a droid for xmas).

To access the mobile version of KoolSource simply visit the site using your mobile phone. If the mobile site does not load even when you visit with a mobile device please let us know what device your using and we'll try to fix it.

Btw this was posted from my droid. Please excuse any spelling errors

The site loads for me on my phone, but it's a little glitchy. Not sure how much of it is your fault or the browser's fault or just plain noone's fault.

Specs: Galaxy Nexus - ICS build 4.0.3

On the homepage alone, the three websites for voting are stacked (I would think it would space them left-right but not top-bottom. Either way, this isn't so bad, just a note)
As for the forums, under "Latest news" the first header is happy holidays and extends across the screen, however all the posts below it only go halfway, as if the end margin was set at the midway point rather than the right side, causing extreme wrap arounds on the articles below it.

Outside of that, looks good. Forums are perfect, members list looks nice. Even the store and istore look wonderful. It's just that blasted homepage that looks buggered me x.X

I have the same issue TheInfamousBug.

Many of the pages -- including the homepage -- were never designed for use on a mobile device, there just simply isn't enough room to display all that needs to be displayed. In a future update I'll probably end up throwing in a redirect so that you never see the homepage and instead go directly to the forums while on a mobile device.

The Forums, Gallery, and iStore (no link yet) all look the way they should but could probably still do with a little tweaking. The homepage and Store are the two things that need to be worked on. I'll probably set some time aside this weekend to get the Store looking proper, adding links to pages that currently have none, and tweaking the pages that are otherwise functional.

We'll see how it goes

It looks like that on my iPod. Temp workaround, if you scroll to the bottom of the page and click view original i think is the terms. It looks like it would from a desktop.

The button at thw top left that says home will bring you to the forums. That way you can get away from the malformed homepage without going away from the speed of the mobile site.
