To be totally honest , I haven't go a clue what's been done here ,all I can see when viewing on my I.pad is that some images in this thread are now so tiny it's impossible to view them . . A total waste of time and effort imho :doh:
Jeff...you have to log onto the new editor to see the differences. It hasn't been formally released by Chris and Jonathan as such but when I was getting the small image problem on iPad, Chris told me to go to my Account, select Preferences and then choose the Modern editor instead of the Ultra theme, in the board theme.  Worth doing as it's a lot better in many ways...even on iPad.

Chris beat me to it.

I have just checked on an iPad and everything looks fine except a few images from flickr have become unavailable.

The changes have been made on a totally separate theme - if you want to see, then change your theme in 'My Account - Preferences' to 'Modern editor'.

We are still working on it but it is usable - there may be a few more features to add.

Edit - cross posted with Eric :-)

Jeff, take a spin with ModernEditor theme and tell us how you like it.
I also want feedback from Robert but he seems to be busy or away.

In fact I would encourage people to take a look at the ModernEditor theme that Chris has been working on and give me feedback.
We wont necessarily be able or want to implement every suggestion but it is always good to have different perspectives.

Jonathan/Chris
If we are approaching the time to open the new editor for all, would it be an idea to somehow archive the various WIP posts on the forum changes ..and start a dedicated thread of comments?
There may be one already that I have missed...but then others may also miss it and post on the several forum related threads...dispersing useful comments? Or maybe it IS this one. :lol:

Yes I was going to make a new thread for responses.

I can move the thread to Locked (Permanent or Temp) until we go live after more tests.
I really want Robert's input on this but he is AWOL.

Ahh - I have been doing a bit of investigating on the issue of images misbehaving themselves - when a high resolution image is viewed on a small screen or iPad it is blown up to full image size in pixels which exceeds the screen width - the result being that the largest image on the page shrinks everything else so you see the whole image.

Hence the tiny text and other images.

I have solved the issue by containing ALL images to 100% of the screen width so they stay within the normal boundaries of the screen. The resolution is unaffected and zooming in will work as normal so you will see the detail.

I have applied this "fix" to both Ultra and ME themes.

***Good idea.
Robert is visiting Jeff in North Wales at the moment.

Thanks Chris.
That has been bothersome for a long time but I didnt have the ability to investigate.

The gaps are the fix for the issue of the menubar covering the top of the post. I am going to move the menu bar to the bottom and see how that works.
