Skinbase Screen Shot on iPad 4
By etype2For Gregor and Nikos.
Sorry,I wanted to post this in the Forums, but unable to post there? The reply box is unresponsive on my PC. Please check to see if you can post a reply in the Forums.
This is the way Skinbase looks on my iPad. The right 1/3rd of the page is missing including the log in and the thumbnails. I use the iPad the majority of time, because I'm away from home.
I'm posting this at home on my PC.

Why don´t you get a whole page on an I-Pad?? Other sites do that too?? Imagine what the internet looks like on a phone!! I can´t believe it is ONLY SB

Yes, this problem is only on Skinbase. It started right after you were complaining about the blue boarders not looking right. As of this post, still have the problem.

Marshall you are holding iPad vertically and not horizontally, that´s why you can´t see the whole page...

Dear Nikos, on my iPad 4, everything was fine until about 3 weeks ago. It started when other folks were complaining that Skinbase did not look right. I only have this problem on Skinbase site sorry to say.
Of course I would try it in both portrait (vertical) and landscape (horizontal) mode, makes no difference, on all pages, not just the home page, 1/3rd of page is cut off. I don´t have a problem on your site, my site or any other site, just here at Skinbase.
The reason the forum looks good to you Nikos is because Gregor just fixed the problem yesterday.

I´m glad the site is fine on you iPad Nikos. The above screenshot proves the site is not working on my iPad4. I don´t make these things up. Why would I? I don´t want to create problems, I want to FIX problems. Fred said he saw the problem on his Android tablet and I think Renee´ said she saw the problem on her iPad.
I don´t what to say either Nikos, other then the problem still exists for me. Just because it appears fine to you does mean the problem does not exist.

It is logical that if there is a problem there is for everyone dear Marshal, otherwise it is a personal problem of a member.
Here is my iPad screenshot of Skinbase: [LINK]
I don't say that you don't have right Marshall, but how can we solve a problem if we can't see it or reproduce it?

Nikos, To say that because you don´t see the problem, means there is no problem is incorect. I invite you to check the chat history in the past several weeks. You will see numerous comments about the site not looking right and not just from me.
Remember about a year or two ago, folks were complaing about the site being slow and you would say in the chat that the site was fast for you, you did not see the problem? Same thing applies here as well.

Absolutely. I agree, it´s a tough one, but please don´t dismiss what I´m saying because you don´t see the problem. Others saw the problem as well.
I´m here to help and contribute to the site, not to cause problems. When I see a problem, I report it. Thank you.

Nikos, Sorry to say the site still does not resize and display correctly on my iPad and when I tap to another page they are all the same way, the right 1/3rd of the page is missing.
It started about 3 1/2 weeks ago when others started complaining about the site borders. Could it be some code was changed to fix that problem? I know with my own Wordpress site, if just one code character is accidentally deleted, it changes the entire look of my site.
I´m running iOS 6.1.3. Apple will most likely release iOS 7 next week after the new product announcements. Possibly that may correct the problem.

I am running iOS 5.1 and the display is correct on my iPad Marshall...this is very strange...
P.S. Both my iPad and iPhone have iOS 5.1 because I have them jailbroken and everything is fine, I have no reason to update them to iOS 6 or 7...

Nikos, iOS 7 was demonstrated last June and said to released this month. It will change the look and functionality of your iPad/iPhone with great new features.
I hope soon, Skinbase will be compatible on my iPad/iPhone.

Nikos, both my devises are running iOS 6.1.3. I see the problem on both. Both were working fine until about 3 1/2 weeks ago.
Since your not running the latest software, this could explain why you don´t see the problem.

Maybe Marshal...but as long for iOS 7 it may be a disaster for Apple, so ugly icons... no new ideas... after Steve Jobs the future of Apple is very blur...

Nikos, you may be right, but I hope you are wrong about Apple. It now appears that Apple will introduce plastic iPhones! This degrades the premium feel and look of Apple. I agree they are going in the wrong direction. They now seem to be reacting to completion instead of innovating.
I still have confidence in Apple and we will see what new products other then plastic iPhones will be introduced September 10.
Sony had the same problem when Akio Morita, their co-founder, Chairman, CEO and President passed away. His visions like Steve Jobs, were lost.
I think it is still to early to know for sure if Apple has lost it´s way. Time will tell, but if they loose their image as a premium innovator, they will most certainly become just another "me too" company.
Look at Bang and Olefson of Denmark, the most beautifully designed products in the world and the most expensive. They steadfastly refuse to change their marketing, they appeal to a niche market of ultra-premium products and they remain successful.
Nikos, you design some of the very best icons. For my personal preferance, I have never used icons. On my PC, I hide all my icons and just pull them up from the task bar when I need them. I just prefer to see a beautiful wallpaper on my desktop with nothing obscuring the image. On my iPad home page, I pushed all the icon apps to the second page so that I just see a beautiful wallpaper in portrait mode, again with nothing blocking the image except for a few bare minimum Apps.
So, I like what I saw with the preview of iOS 7. I plan to install as soon as released and hope it will fix the compatibility issue with the Skinbase site, if not fixed sooner.
