So far (and I'm typing this as the upgrade is happening) I am very impressed with the new PMC mobile site! Gives us greater access to things on the go and it's not a half bad way to even browse the site normally.

However, I can't say that I really like the front page change all that much.

The diamond button has also been made bigger and the comments section of notifications has been altered in layout and with text saying "Go to Cmt". I'm sure there are more changes but it appears to be another big move made by Cyprezz and Paril.

Anyway, thoughts and opinions on it?

I like the update, however one thing that does annoy me is the subscribers and subscriptions on my profile no longer line up.

Oh, and it seems it is messed up with the activity page on people's profiles too.

Oh ew, it seems alot of things aren't lining up anymore.
Like the thumbnails on the home pages.

And I just noticed the avatars on the profile page have rounded corners.

Allergy_ManAlso I don't know if it's just me, but the project/skin pictures are blurry on everyone's profile.

That usually happens if you have some form of data or image compression going on. Just check what settings or plugins you have enabled in your browser and maybe you'll find the issue there.

I like the idea of the diamond button being bigger on mobile devices.

But I really dislike the new homepage ... again it might be nicer for mobile devices but it's really not nescessary for PC/MAC.

It's about time they got a mobile friendly site.

I think it's a great step for PMC.
The new home page is ehh, ok. I don't really like the footer.
But other than that it's great!

EDIT:
Also the thumbnails should all be the same height.

And bug:
I noticed this when the new navbar was added but never got it to happen again.
But it seems to happen when you go to a page on the forums that doesn't exist:

The larger diamond icon was to make it easier notice and to tap on mobile. I could restrict it so it only shows large version on mobile devices.


I like that much better, because on the computer it makes it look a little awkward

I just revised the homepage feeds based on feedback. Smaller Icons, 4 per row and only 1 row per topic, so easier to scroll through.

The larger diamond icon was to make it easier notice and to tap on mobile. I could restrict it so it only shows large version on mobile devices.

Allergy_Man : I don't see blurry project/skin icons on member profiles. Anyone else?

What you did with the homepage looks much better in my opinion, and I like the idea of the diamond only being enlarged on mobile. I have had trouble diamonding on mobile before.

Also, submission icons aren't blurry for me, either.

Allergy_ManSeems okay to me. I liked the smaller boxes on the homepage, and the old diamond more though. The new reply button is spiffy, but I don't like how you have to hover over the comment for it to become visible.

This.
Also, the new search bar/diamond/homepage look like they were majorly blown up for people with sight problems, they look tacky to me.
