Could you guys please check something for me?

Could you guys grab your mobiles and head to StreetHop.com through it and let me know if the main page shows a mobile layout, and also tell me what you think of it. Thanks.

It just shows recent articles and then you have Recent Articles, Forum, and Contact Us on the top. Is that what you're looking for?

In a simplified Mobile type layout yes? Looks ok? Easy to navigate for you? Quick to load?

Speaking of the front page.....It looks shitty. The old design was much better.

^bah i am just not liking all the white..

You guys seem to rarely visit the main page anyway. *Shurgs*

The light colors give it a more professional presentation if you ask me.

The forum will be headed in the same direction once vb4 is up and running.

I love the new layout in the front. Kicks ass.

As for the mobile version, it looks like shit but very easy to navigate. the non-mobile version on the mobile looks great and easy to navigate.

I dunno how it will look w/ the new layout.

is it gonna look like this?

I always visit it. It's the first place i go to and then I click on community. I usually read the news and then come on the forums.

I don't think it looks professional. If anything it looks like a default premade website made by a crappy program.

I really like the main page more. It looks slightly more professional and most of all a bit brighter. Actually I dislike dark layouts like in our forum but you can't keep everyone happy.

If it comes to the mobile version it looks okay for me BUT when I go to http://mobile.streethop.com/ I see the normal resource-draining main page and then when I click "community" I can see the mobile version at StreetHop.com Mobile.
Also, it gets a bit messy with threads listed.
Bolding thread titles isn't good enough if there's info about who and when posted in a line below backgrounded with a different color.
I'd either put spaces between threads or even better - change the background for a line where poster name and post date are so it would match the background color of its corresponding thread title and be more readable.

Hmmm masta when I go from my blackberry it's the mobile layout. If I go from the browser it's normal. So I think it autodetects. Were you checking from mobile or browser?

I think it all looks great.

Using opera mobile it displays a normal home page and mobile forums. So I have to bookmark "forum" instead of the home page to save some precious data on my gprs plan.

edit: It doesn't occur on the new Opera mini. I just updated it and it's all good, smooth and nice. Good job.
However browsing threads still doesn't feel as great as it could be imo. Seems kind of messy.
