Christmas Theme

Sico, I'm shocked you haven't applied a Christmas theme to the site like you did last year! :D :))

It looks way more festive and gives the site a "fresh look".

Have you any plans to implement one?

    Not worth a new thread, but "James Bond Films" forum needs new explanation: Barry Nelson to Pierce Brosnan? To Daniel Craig, surely?

    And there's "the upcoming Quantum of Solace" under the banner, not that anyone's noticed. But give Si a break--he's a hard-workin' man!

    It is directly above the "ajb007" at the top left hand side of the page.

    It is red and is hanging off the second "0".

    It's OK on mine ... try a reboot/close and reopen Safari.

    Cheers and Happy Christmas!

    rebooted, cleared cache and deleted history to see if it'd help.

    no it didn't.

    i'm using standard safari pal, which is annoying the hell outta me as it diverts to mobile versions of site like ebay, which is useless.

    i'll give it a try.

    minigeff, could we not be a little more pleasant at this time of year? With regards to the snow I have no problems using iOs on both an iPhone or iPad. Was it happening just yesterday and today with the full page snow? Has it been happening with the banner snow as well?

    I have removed the full page snow as it was only for Christmas day itself (and today as I've been busy!). Let me know if this fixes it.

    I'm using iPhone 4s, running iOS 5.0.1 safari seems to run ajb better.

    I've got atomic lite installed too and it's that that has the problems.

    Seems to be better today but atomic still playing catch up when inputting text such as this and login details.

    Merry Christmas si, sorry but after getting stuck in it for 5 hrs last year, I **** hate snow.

    I have never heard of Atomic, I would suggest it is running a different or bespoke web rendering engine. Unfortunately there are only so many of these the site can support (even the ones it does are a headache!). Therefore it probably doesn't support the code used to make the snow. The snow header will be gone early in the new year, it will be interesting to see if you still have problems.

    Safari is a competent browser and I would personally recommend it for browsing on iOs over and above other browsing apps.

    Yeah my only gripe with safari is the afore-mentioned mobile sites.

    Safari has no way of turning off mobile versions of sites. Take ebay for instance, you're taken straight to the mobile page, and even when you press for 'classic version' it just diverts straight back to the mobile site, which has less features and isn't very good to use.

    I installed atomic lite as I heard you could switch off this 'auto diverting' to mobile sites, but that feature is only available on the full fat version, not the free lite. However, atomic seems to do as its told more and actually stays on full sites instead of diverting back like safari does all the time.

    Simple solution for now is use safari for ajb, atomic for ebay.
