I agree a lot of sites rely on places like Photobucket to attache picture files to the site. What they should have is another site based option which will even work on their mobile version letting you load files from your gallery.

What you need to do is switch to the mobile version of the forum. This is available and just needs admin to install.

Nowadays on your user CP you should have the option to enable notifications.

That's a good point - about a mobile site.

Ages ago there was chat on here about having a mobile version of Shelled Warriors and the site owners didn't want it but some members did.
Rather foolishly I insisted it was inevitable that we would go mobile in due course but we never have.

Surely we need a site that evolves because technology changes constantly and so does the way people use it.

Shelled Warriors needs to be accessible from mobile devices. Especially as they can now do as much as a PC could a few years ago, leading to some people not having a fixed desk computer at all.

we all need to keep pace with technology and and vice versa, but I personally cant stand facebook or twitter and I know a lot of people that don't do either, equally same amount who do....who are the happiest ? ! well I can tell you its the non facebook twitter people in my world and all those who do do it talk about it .....who posted what, said who to what, when, and were wearing at the time. omg its soooo painful, there is no debate anymore just tweets which is why people get so up tight I reckon. You don't say in public what you think in private...old adage CB

My personal opinion is that a mobile version would be good to have and can't do any harm.

& I agree three!

If people want to carry on with the original version then thats fine too. I personally have huge issues trying to post photos. Not that I dont know how to. I think my problem lies in the fact I use either one of two Android tablets or my Android phone & photobucket just doesnt want to know!

I have a lot! That I would like to share, (show my Margies to Cherry Brandy! An unusual case of sceptacemia etc)

I have just figured how to copy and paste Photobucket pictures from my Samsung phone using the Photobucket app. This worked on.my mobile forum as well so get your mobile version everything works great.
