Your website isn’t very user friendly if viewing on a phone. All of your ads and the way the info is scrolled down the center made it small, even on my larger Galaxy phone. Even trying to expand the size of the picture was only possible by stretching and it popped back to original size when I removed my fingers, so of course that didn’t really help.
It looks like you have some interesting info, but I only made it through 4 or 5 frames before I decided it wasn’t worth it. Hope you can figure out how to make more phone friendly.
Thank you for letting us know Debra. We are working on getting our site to be more user friendly for those of you viewing the site on your phone. Sorry for the inconvenience. I hope you’ll consider coming back and taking a look at some more of our articles!
Great post.
Thank you! 🙂 Glad you like it.
