Default Large NEXT PAGE button?

I was wondering if there was a way to implement a large "Next Page" button on threads... I just got an iPhone, and it's kinda inconvenient to zoom in on the teeny tiny "2" button and click it.

Just a thought.

So if they are able to do this for you, because you can't see it on your I-Phone how friggin big will it look on my monitor? Will it be the only thing I can see?

I just meant to make it about as big as the "Post Reply" button. Not like "OMG IT'S THE NEXT PAGE BUTTON!!!" big.

I honestly think it was a reasonable request. If it isn't enormous, I don't see the problem with it.

I agree. It's probably almost time to create a theme or style sheet specifically for mobile phone browsers.

noR - the vBulletin forums have a lot of information on how to make a mobile version. I linked James to all the information several months ago. Not sure what became of it but the information is still there. Not sure it was a style sheet. I think there was a little more to it.

I would be willing to help you test if you need it.

i do not like mobile versions. rabbit owners club has one and at one point made it default when it knew you were on a mobile device, and there was no way to change it to the normal theme. it might be good for some devices, but not the iphone and ipod touch. it was awkward and didn't do everything i expected and knew. i told the admin and it was instantly changed, phew.

i'm not opposed to the option for a mobile-friendly theme, but just don't make it automatic and impossible to change.

Su, Ron, any updates on this?

I would also be willing to help test (seeing as how I have said mobile device).
