Just one thing more: I'm still managing (or coping?) with several ongoing emergencies and unexpected crises since mid-December. It would be unrealistic right now to set the timeframe for the changes, but they definitely have to happen and are underway.

The last real changes in the site's templates were designed by Keith in possibly 2010 or 2011 and didn't truly accommodate mobile browsers. Just glancing at our stats, recently we've had 35% of our users coming from a mobile o/s, whether it's a phone or a table, Apple, Android, or whatever.

A recent article claimed that 52.7% of Internet users last year worldwide used mobile devices. That number came from a source which said it was 75.1% in the US.

I assume that includes folks who primarily use Apps, but I've also read that many people rely on a mobile device as their primary web browser. They may not even have a laptop or desktop, or they may use it less for entertainment and social/hookup purposes.

So many of these mobile users are being lost by CFS to other sites.

Thus, we need to change to keep an audience and simply to stay in business.

Stay tuned. ~ Bob S.
