First, good luck to everyone! There are some amazing cabs once again this month! Some very woody wood! Tommy - I love what you did in that second post. From a laptop standpoint, there's no issues...which I'm sure you already knew. I do hope there's no issues from anyone's standpoint if it's definitely easier for you.  |

I'm digging it Tommy. No issues my way viewing it.

Tommy The second post looks great on my imac, macbook, and Samsung Galaxy S11+ cell phone. Here's how it displays on my phone

Looks great, Tommy! I'm all for anything that makes less work for you. I always use my laptop for the forum, so I'm no use on other devices. |

Thank you everyone for the feedback and keep it coming. I did say that it would make the contest easier to manage but after using it I am in love with the click the thumbnails interface and I'm wondering why I didn't do it a long time ago. There are at least two options I could employ that I think would fix the screen width issue on tablets, as well as phones in desktop mode. This screenshot shows both fixes on my phone in desktop view. The top is the thumbnails kept at 300px but dropped to 2 columns wide which would make a longer presentation to scroll through. The bottom half of the screenshot shows the thumbnails kept at 3 columns wide and reduced to 200px. I wonder which one we like better?  |

Visually the 2nd one is more appealing

I would strongly suggest keeping them at 300 pixels, even if that means 2-wide + scrolling is required. You and I talked a lot about photo size a few months ago. I won't repeat my points here, but in short, larger thumbnails make for a fairer contest. I don't know why anyone would be consistently using desktop mode on a cell phone to view RTH forum. Anyone having problems could easily turn off desktop mode. Could they also simply tilt their phones sideways into landscape orientation? |

Lol, I hate the desktop version due to the amount of side scrolling I have to do.

I avoid it for the side scrolling reason as well. I otherwise have nothing against it, but the scrolling drives me crazy! |

Another very hard vote. All the cabs are exceptional.
I prefer the 3 column option, but I only use my Windows laptop for RTH.

holajonathan , that is some awesome looking wood. I especially like the second one, if for nothing else, it is a crazy pattern.

All, I just noticed that I forgot to put an expiration date on the voting poll so since I'll be working late tonight I will manually close the poll as soon as I get home from work - should be somewhere around Wed 3/09 at 12:00am PDT.
Get those last minute votes in! It's another close one.
