Elliot B. Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 I'm personally fed up of having to click a link in order to read the rest of a title, only to find out it's not something I cared about in the first place! Can something please be done about this? whitebread 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
remixedcat Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 yeah mine's like that too. how about having more then one line per title? but it's great if you have it in landscape mode though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timan Veteran Posted June 16, 2012 Veteran Share Posted June 16, 2012 Headlines have been exactly like this for 2+yrs on the mobile site. No plans to change it currently.

Or if not, please at least tell us the rational regarding why the mobile home page headlinea are currently how they are and why Neowin is unwilling to improve them.

Hard to respond without coming off ass an arse. But its by design, wether is good or bad, its how it has been and will remain for now. Appreciate the feedback, but its a choice I made when doing the mobile version of the site, and personally prefer it as is. Theres always the desktop version of the site you can view, can also subscribe to the rss feeds with an app. Or can just say we'll look into it, and have you hope for it, forever :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The iPhone 4/S has a resolution of 960x640, yet the Neowin mobile skin is only showing 20 characters or so of each topic title. It's ridiculous. At least explain to us the reason(s) behind the design decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SharpGreen Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 Now it looks funny with the way the comment number just covers part of the title. Don't see what was so difficult about turning the device sideways. Then you don't have to do anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
