    I wasn't aware that the notices box was taking up so much of the screen for some people on their mobile devices. Whenever I web-browse on my phone I have it turned sideways so that websites look the same as on my computer (it doesn't compress the websites, and the font is often bigger and easier to read).

    (I also didn't realise that the board is still defaulting for some people to the regular vbulletin blue/yellow colour scheme... I will have to see if I can get it to stay on its custom red/white/blue colour scheme.)



    As for the notices box, it was created before mobile browsing was a big thing... and it was the result of being annoyed by people always asking if something had been released here - as it would have taken them longer to wait for someone to reply to their question than to just spend a couple minutes to look up the most recent sightings (or the checklist and first sightings topics when they were being kept up to date).

    I will reduce it to just noting any toy sales, and the most recent new toy sighting as well as the most recent pre-order listing. That should limit it to just 3 lines of text on a phone browser. If we have a large number of new sightings at once I will just note the most fan-focused item.
