Are you mobile ready?

Are you mobile ready?  They say that's how most people will be looking at our sites.  I'm not ready but I'm working at it.  I'm slowly changing my web pages so they are only 600 pixels wide and my paintings take up more of the page.  I hope this helps.  It seems to on my husband's iPad.  I notice the print on this blog is pretty small but easy for him to expand on the ipad but I'm curious about the smart phones... can they even read my blog if I put the QR code on my flyers?  

My question for you today is:  Have you tried the different templates offered by blogger, to see which ones show up the best on the new phones?  If you have and you figured it out...please let me know.

Thanks,
Bonnie Heather

  1. Je ne suis pas très téléphone... j'oublie très souvent que c'est ma sonnerie qui retentit!!! Alors de là à publier ou lire le blog! Mais j'ai toutefois essayé la semaine dernière, n'ayant pas la possibilité de me brancher wifi dans le lieu où je me trouvais... J'ai réussi, mais franchement pas très aisé avec un petit écran!
    gros bisous

  2. Wow Bonnie, I'm so technically challenged I can not help, but would be interested to learn more. Thank you for sharing a question I didn't even know to ask. One smart lady - many blessings to you.

  3. I am not technologically advanced at this time; I have a regular plain old cell phone that does not take pictures, does not get internet but gets great service no matter where I am. My brother on the other hand has a phone that takes photos, gets internet, but never has reception when he's here in Maine. Opps! I'm hoping my US Cellular has picture and internet available bacause I really should update my service someday. I'm just too darn cheap!

  4. I am always playing with the templates but for my own satisfaction. As to the cell phones, I don't even own one (gasp!). You are always thinking of others, Bonnie, and that is one of those things I love about you!

  6. Wow, and just recently it seems like I was expanding my site to read better on everyone's new, bigger screens! Now we have to reverse the process?

    I wonder, do the phones have the capability that the web browsers to, to go zoom up and down in size by holding down the Control key plus the + or - key?

  7. Oh my, this I hadn't thought of with the whole blog thing. I know FASO websites are set up to look good on mobile devices. Great site you've got...filled with info!

  8. You folks are so much like me. Love you so much. I'll let you know everything i find out. So far this blog looks pretty good on a phone. Once on it they can increase the size to read it.

    I'm off to another sunny day in my art booth. Such a nice way to spend my day... I may even paint today while there.... I'll have to see how my courage level is :)
