Site background 'conflicts' on mobile phones?
Hi
I don't know where to start solving this?
A member suggested an issue he has been having with my site, his Android mobile 'phone's browser keeps crashing- and though he has debugged several times, it's my site background that is the problem, too much loading memory required?
He tried disabling images but gets an ugly and bare site, which nobody should have to tolerate?
Is there a more mobile-friendly compromise, but also keeping a site that looks good?
Thanks

Hi,
Unfortunately, there is no compromise, and the way to change the mobile background is bit complex, though it is CSS.
If you wish to inform him, he can do 2 things about it:
1 - Click the classic mode every time he loads the forum,
2 - He can disable mobile mode for ALL websites (Yes this includes Facebook!)
It also does cause significantly HIGHER data charges! The charges can go up by atleast 50%, however, it is how I do it on my Andriod.
Open the browser > Touch 'Menu' > More > 'Settings' > Mobile view.
