Neowin Forums get a Mobile skin


Recommended Posts

Just a few notes:

1. The login screen needs some work.

2. Wider quick reply box please.

3. Pages are wider than the screen (I can horizontal scroll)

4. Few display glitches here and there.

By the way did I mention I love this new mobile version? However is there a link I can bookmark that takes me to new posts all the time?

Not sure if you saw the previous replies but Timan is re-doing the iPhone skin :)

The current skin is a temp fix as without it iPhone users wouldn't be able to use the mobile forums at all but a lot of the staff are iPhone users and clearly the members are too so it's high priority and as Timan has said he hopes to have it done over the weekend but no promises ;)

If only such a thing were easy to do with PHPBB3.. /sigh

Looks amazing btw guys, but you might wana drop the width of the tables down by about 5 pixels on the iPhone version, looks dodgy when you scroll sideways

Whoops.. didnt read that first

Again S60 3rd phones should be top prority.

Wow what an ass****. You dont get to demand anything, just because you have a S60 phone doesnt mean they should drop everything else they are doing just to make you happy, until you start contributing to the site by donating then maybe just maybe you might be able to REQUEST it for your phone.

There should be a emulator there included.

http://marketshare.hitslink.com/report.aspx?qprid=10 reflects market share correctly and as such Nokia phones aren't a priority. Priorities are iPhone and Windows Mobile. Have you tired the site on your S60 phone?

I expect demand a Symbian S60 3rd version made; Please remember that the iPhone is a little bit over a year old and Symbian has been here for a VERY long time; Again a Symbian version should be made before the iPhone version; Symbian has alot more marketshare than iPhone.

Thanks and great addition to the site :)

What exactly is wrong with the current mobile version on Symbian?

It looks fine to me, screenshots taken on my N95.

Great work guys, I can read the forums on the go now! :)

If you need anything testing on Symbian let me know as I?m sure someone posted you didn?t have a Symbian phone to test on.

If you have any idea what fonts those phones have, I could apply one that matches Tahoma/Verdana. That seems to be the reason some things are displaying out of whack. But for the most part it looks usable. Could use some slight tweaks, but would need to find a way to test it.

From looking in the font?s folder on the N95 I found:

Nokia Hindi S60 Regular (OpenType)

Nokia Hindi S60 Semibold (OpenType)

Nokia Hindi TitleSmBd S60 (OpenType)

Series 60 ZDigi (TrueType)

Ive uploaded the fonts here.

I?m not sure if the web browser uses these fonts but they were the only ones I could find on the phone, is there a script or something that might tell me?

I own a Hiptop; has a standard browser and the new mobile skin fails to work on it.

Compatibility would be appreciated, I thought it would be good to also add that the mobile skin of the news side of Neowin (Main, Software, Gamers) works fine on the Hiptop.

It's market share based on internet usage, silly!

But again....if a product has sold ALOT more than another product, wouldn't its market share be similar/the same/more?

Its common logic.

well i do understand your patriotism but just because you and some others are using s60 phones doesnt mean you need to "demand" anything here. seriously, take what you get, afterall its free and someone spend a whole lot of time there on developing it for US, for FREE, for OUR convenience...

please pay some respect and dont sht around because there is no s60 version YET...

i mean... come on...

Its not "me and some others" its the majority. What ****es me off the most, is that ONE year old phone gets more attention than a whole platform that has been here for years. You are free to make a iPhone version, but you must also make a Symbian version.

Wow what an ass****. You dont get to demand anything, just because you have a S60 phone doesnt mean they should drop everything else they are doing just to make you happy, until you start contributing to the site by donating then maybe just maybe you might be able to REQUEST it for your phone.

Again, me and thousands of others; The Symbian platform is the most used

http://marketshare.hitslink.com/report.aspx?qprid=10 reflects market share correctly and as such Nokia phones aren't a priority. Priorities are iPhone and Windows Mobile. Have you tired the site on your S60 phone?

Again I do not believe that site for the fact that the PS3 is used more than the Wii (hell even the Xbox 360 isnt on there which has been out for years)

I wasnt saying it looked wrong, I was simply stating that if a iPhone version is made, a Symbian version must be made as well...

Timan thank you very very very much for understanding my conc:)n :)

InsaneNutter posted the fonts and I hope you can make a Symbian version soon. Thank you for understand:)g :)

    • RevPDF 4.5.0 by Razvan Serea RevPDF is a free, fully offline PDF editor for Windows, macOS, and Linux that lets you edit text and images directly inside PDF files — no internet connection, no account, and no cloud uploads required. Unlike bloated alternatives that demand subscriptions and constant connectivity, RevPDF fits in under 60MB on desktop while delivering a complete editing toolkit: annotate, redact, sign, compress, split, merge, convert, and reorganize pages, all processed locally on your device. Smart font matching ensures edited text blends seamlessly with the original, and multi-language support includes RTL scripts such as Arabic and Hebrew. Where most PDF editors force you to choose between features and simplicity, RevPDF manages both. You can build interactive forms from scratch with text fields, checkboxes, and dropdowns, permanently redact sensitive data before sharing, draw freehand on contracts and diagrams, and add custom watermarks — all without a single file leaving your machine. Edit Text and Images Directly Inside PDFs RevPDF supports true inline PDF editing — not just annotation layers on top of a document, but actual modification of existing text and images within the file. A smart font-matching engine identifies the font used in the original document and applies it automatically when you make edits, so changes blend naturally with the surrounding content. You can reposition elements, resize images, and update text across single pages or entire documents. RevPDF 4.5.0 release notes: This is one of the biggest updates to RevPDF yet. A lot of things people have been asking for are finally here. New Features Auto Redaction Permanently redact sensitive text and areas from your PDFs before sharing. Clean, irreversible, and fully offline. Comments, Links & Bookmarks Add comments for review, insert clickable links, and create bookmarks to jump around long documents without scrolling forever. Find & Replace Search across the whole document and replace text in one go. Long overdue. Split Pages Vertically or Horizontally Split any page down the middle, vertically or horizontally. Perfect for scanned books or double-page spreads. New Drawing Tools More tools for freehand drawing and markup, better for annotations, sketches, and detailed notes. Continuous Scrolling in Editor The editor now scrolls continuously through pages instead of jumping between them. Working through long documents is a lot smoother now. PDF Metadata Editor View and edit the metadata stored inside your PDFs, including title, author, subject, and keywords. Better Font Matching Text edits now blend in more naturally by doing a better job of matching the original font. Tabbed PDF Viewer Open multiple PDFs at once in tabs and switch between them without going back to the home screen. Add Links Insert hyperlinks anywhere in your PDF, to external URLs or to other pages within the document. Share & Print Shortcuts Share or print directly from the editing screen, home screen, and viewer. No extra steps. Minor Updates Paste images directly from clipboard into your PDF New image editing tools for more control over images inside documents Bug Fixes Fixed file saving issues on Windows and Linux Everything still works fully offline. No login, no cloud, no account. Your files stay on your device.
