Not sure. I personally don't like the purple/magenta font. Using my laptop at the moment, rather than I pad. x
Gransnet forums
Site stuff
As so many people now access the site on a phone or tablet, and to keep up with the modern world 
we're making Gransnet all lovely and mobile friendly. It will mean a few tweaks, as you can imagine, but we hope to bring you a test version very soon so that you can tell us what you like, what you like a bit less, and what you love (of course) - and this will all help us make the end version as fantastic as possible.
Now as part of this we're looking to streamline our forum topics a little - mainly to avoid people having to scroll for several days to find what they want
We are NOT getting rid of anything (and we are not getting rid of any threads!) but we are looking at merging a few topics and amalgamating a few that get less traffic into other areas. All to make it easier for use of course - but if you have strong feelings about anything now's the time to let us know.
Here's the new list as it stands.

Now over to you!
I am using the mobile site on my laptop and it is so much easier for posting on the forums with a drop down menu for emoticons. The third circle from the smiley let you put a picture on any thread!!
Oh!!! Right down there! All on it's own!
Who the flip would notice that? (Well, apart from one or two of the more eagle eyed amongst us) 
Thank you Hilda. 
Trying this one
I'm on my pc typing this, and it seems to work ok here.
I like it!
Hi jingl Most times the mobile site should activate automatically, but if it doesn't then the 'mobile site' button thingie (real terminology 
) is there. Btw, I did see your 'You're back?' comment on the other thread a week or so ago but as it was going rather well I didn't want to hop on and disrupt things again .
Galen It should just be a viewing thing (in order to fit it on the page). If you click on the photo it should come up with all three heads intact. But if not do let us know!
Lara I have enjoyed a lovely hour or two in the garden working it all out. I think I've got it now.
Btw there's no 'flip the thread' is there. I would miss that, but perhaps you can't get too much on a smaller thingie.
I am using my android to type this, I used to mainly use last hour, much easier, I am reserving judgment for now.
No can do photos 
Clearly I'm doing something wrong, iPad mini won't let me crop photos before I attach them so the loading goes on and on and on...........
And then I give up!
Oh... . You need to keep trying. Took me a couple of hours this afternoon. It's not easy.
Up to now I have been trying to upload a photo for 7min I shall keep trying as long as I have the patience
Is it worth it if it's taking people hours and hours to upload a photo...?
I have given up after 1hr and 52 min
Ana - it's more fun than politics.
I have made my photo so small, it only has my cats ear on it, and it still wont load
