Therefore, please do not use imagebam, or any host, that provides live playing gifs in those specific threads. If you see your gif playing once you post, try to use a smaller thumbnail and if that does not work use a different approved host.

    Every time I have tried to view the forum on my iPhone, the site is constantly hi-jacked by a livejasmin pop-up...

    Is there a fix for this?

    There is no "hi-jack", and there's no fix, as it's not a problem renegade. It's intentional, and everyone sees the pop-up. Be they mobile, or otherwise, It's a cash stream for the owner of the board to offset the costs of the bandwidth/content that you view/receive for free. We're all very upset that you find it irritating, but what would you prefer?.....Clicking an X once per visit, or not having the board at all?

    You've been here since 05'. Get yer shit together. We expect more from long term members.

    Thanks for the ass-whoopin', Salty...
    My intention was not to offend anyone (including the forum sponsors). My issue is not the fact that it pops up on my iPhone, but that I can't seem to get back to the forum once the pop-up shows up.
    I don't mind visiting the site (and often do!!!)... But on my iPhone, once the pop-up pops up, I can no longer get back to this forum...
    My apologies to livejasmin.com (and to you, Salty!!!).

    I'm not familiar with the iPhone, and I don't have that problem on my LG. It sounds to me like you're dealing with a redirect. In that case can you enter forum.phun.org in the address box and go back to phun that way? Or will the redirect happen every time you log into phun?

    Exactly!!! It's like an eternal loop!!! It doesn't happen every single time, but more often than not...
    I open the forum, and the pop-up appears... I try to go back a page, and the pop-up appears again. I go on the pop-up page, then go backwards to the forum, and the pop-up appears again!!!
    As much as I like livejasmin, I like this forum more...
    Just sayin'...

    That sounds fucked. After you get the redirect open a new tab to phun then close the tab to livejasmin. See if that works.

    My browser works similar to the browser on my laptop, I can open unlimited tabs. It's by Opera, maybe there's a version for iPhone. Or maybe Chrome or Firefox offer one.

    I was having the same problem I now use the Downloads HD app on my iPad when viewing Phun. It opens LiveJasmin in a separate tab which you can just ignore or close. There is a similar app for the iPhone that costs $1.99. The developer is Hian Zin Jong in case you have trouble finding it. There are a lot of downloader apps. I've tried a few and this one works best for me.

    Here's a link that will take you right to the app: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/downloads-downloader-download/id343307433?mt=8
