I assume this is part of the update - a really annoying issue I just encountered is that it shrinks "fullpics" into unclickable thumbnails in wrong ratio that look like crap.

Can this be resolved?

Today's update: improving the site on mobile devices (smartphones and small tablets)
I hope it will work fine on all devices, as it is often painful to get it correct on the various hardware & software. Especially the old iphones with an outdated Safari.
It is not yet perfect, but I think it is already much more useable.
To keep the well-loved outdated retro theme unchanged on desktop, I relied on CSS to change the layout only for mobiles, and with a few javascript to move all the account/management/admin links into a "hamburger" menu in the top right corner.
So all the links appearing between [ ] in the title bars of the desktop version of the site), including the login link, can be found in that new menu.
Known issue that will stay:
- if you switch between compact/mobile and regular view (by resizing the window or turning the device), the content of the "hamburger" menu (in the corner) is not properly updated. Reloading the page solves the issue.
Known issues to be improved:
- the pages where lists with columns are displayed are not yet optimized, I'll see what I can do
- comments view could still be improved, but should already be better than before.
If you prefer to have the old/desktop style on mobile, it should still work if you enable the option "desktop version" (or something like that) in the menu of your mobile browser.
The snow effect of the header is not enabled on mobile, as I guess it is even less useful there.

Could you please unlock the movie entry? Look here: https://www.imcdb.org/movie_14877120-Kiff.html
I assume it was locked because vehicles in it were too generic, cf all what is posted in comments. So if you want to add something, post it in the comments, and if it is really worth listing an admin can make the vehicle page for it.
i dont even know how to become a picture provider
Originally all accounts can provide pictures, but some lose that right when they add illegal content and/or when adding stuff that should not be on the site.

Excuse me, but I would like someone or you to unlock and/or unblock adding vehicles so that administrators can add detailed vehicles to the internet. Could you please unlock the movie entry? Look here: https://www.imcdb.org/movie_14877120-Kiff.html
