If you folks are interested Kiltedcodewarrior just did these two posts directly from his phone.
Photos included.

Pretty cool. I told you that you would like the new forum.

[Father Bill]

Pretty snazzy, guys!

So you uploaded those directly without photosharing site? the pictures are pretty small, however.

I usually browse the forum on my Blackberry or my iPad. I actually find the new look less friendly, especially for the Blackberry. Previously I could click on the little magnifying glass cursor and the screen would resize to the larger font. It doesn't resize now.

On my PC (Firefox browser), just mouse over and you get a pop-up of larger version. Haven't checked this thread on my Android. Have browsed the new forum on the Android and not noticed a big difference from the old format, do lots of "finger spreading" to zoom in and read/click but can see enough in native resolution to decide whether I want to open a thread or not.

Yes, just snapped the picture, then clicked the insert picture button in the editor, and it let me pick the picture from the ones on my phone, then uploaded it when I clicked post.

It makes it a thumbnail in the post, but you can mouse over or click on the picture for a bigger version. Not sure what controls the size of the picture, have to look and see if it is a vBulletin setting, a phone setting, or possibly both.

Using IE8, when I just mouse over (no clicking) the tumbnail pic, it opens up a new picture viewing window that I have to actively close. Not sure I like that.

I have changed the settings to require a click to show the actual picture
