I'm somewhat ashamed to admit that I am absolutely addicted to my phone. Not sure what I did before it. I spend waaaaay over 5 hours a day on mine. I do all my browsing on it, and haven't picked up a computer in years (except at work). 

I've tried tapatalk and personally prefer the traditional look myself. Although,  I think it's very smart to have as an option for the people who prefer it. Based on the poll on ages, I think you have kind of a strange demographic here. Anyone my age (39) and under seem to pretty much live on their phone.

Using a computer for anything other than homework is literally comical to my children.

In front of me right now I have an iMac 27" screen with amazing resolution, a full-size keyboard with the touch I prefer and a high-functioning mouse.  It's my preferred device.  I have an iPhone, a MacBook Pro, a large iPad, a fairly large Microsoft Surface Pro tablet with keyboard and a small Android tablet.  The smartphone is always with me but the others are usually left behind.  When I do take one in addition to my smartphone it's never to cruise forums.  The small screens, small keyboards and lack of a mouse will probably never become my favorites.

So—I may install Tapatalk just to see what it's like but I doubt that I'll be a regular user.

I'm glad to see it installed, tho'.  It shows that the site management aims to please.

I created an account to test and make sure it was working. I didn't think it would be something I use but when I am not near one of my computers it is pretty slick especially for PM's.

So Tapatalk is an application you load onto your device, then, when you are browsing, you just go to it to view the site you want to browse?  That can't be right, because we had to put it on this site so that folks that wanted to use it could...

It does make it easier to read on a phone. I am using it now just to check it out. I still prefer the "forum" view, but if my eyes were bad or something like that it may be handy.

An example of what it looks like:

LSFS, my pic just showed up in tapatalk, but most of the other links within the threads are broken in the tapatalk app. Here are a couple screenshots of what I see on the app

My main complaint would have to be the giant ads woven into the normal thread stream from pellet fan.

I wondered why those pics were so big. I thought it was automatically resizing the pics, but then realized it was 3rd party hosting them from their site. Couple questions.

Is there a way to use this sites hosting through tapatalk?

Is there a short cut resizing method like imgur uses (typing s,m,l, etc behind the link to change the size) with tapatalks hosting? I tried the imgur method without success.

Those onion rings look absolutely amazing in the giant image. I know you are testing, but did you make those?
