Afternoon CAJJES,
Two thirds of AB members use either a tablet or a smartphone of some kind, we kind of have to give them a way to get on.
The design method is called "responsive design" which means that the same site displays differently on different screen sizes.
If you could let me know what you don't like, then we can take it into account and maybe improve things for those who haven't been convinced yet. I can't do anything for you unless I have specifics however.
Additionally, if the site is looking very weird to you (like the new site is trying to wear the old site's clothes, text bleeding out etc) then you need to refresh your browser (CTRL+F5) and clear your browsing data. You can find out about fixing that here: http://
As always, happy to have a discussion about improving the site here - especially for Quizzers, as you're an important part of the site, who are quite hard to get the attention of!
All the best,
AB Editor.
