@Panda With a resolution like that, it shouldn’t be an issue. However, there are a number of things you can do with custom CSS. I wouldn’t recommend creating a new theme unless you really have to
@Panda just circling back on this based on your list concerning badges overlapping.
This is what I see on my mobile
This is exactly why I never really liked CSS. It can so easily go wrong on different resolution screens!
When I wrote games, I would use Javascript on Canvas, with my own font so that everything was scaled as % of screen width and height.
I had my own library for this. It was the only way to guarantee everything works on all devices.
Look at this: its a mess, and Flip4 is not an uncommon device
What does having this extra Tag saying Author really add?
I dont want to be critical, but it might be better to have the user group badges as shorter names, then that would reduce overlaps?
@Panda it looks to me like you’re using enlarged fonts at least. Can you confirm? You can’t cater for literally every device of course.
@phenomlab yes thats a point that font size is an Android system setting, so another variable.
So its not on largest but more than half way up
@Panda yes, that will play havoc with rendering. I’m curious to know if setting it to the normal size resolves it.
Yes with text 4/8 size its fine.
Athough my suggestion to have shorter group names might be worth taking.
Collaborator is quite a long badge name,
Whats your list of all the group categories? Is Sage top, how did you chose these names?

Yes, I need to re-think these names actually.

See below
In actual fact, even “Supreme” won’t be the top rank - at 50,000 upvotes, you’d need to be almost god-like 
@phenomlab
Interesting. Because it is not obvious which name is what rank, I suggest an alphabetical list.
For example, something like
ACE (highest)
COMMANDER
EXPERT
GURU
ROOKIE
STARTER (lowest)
@Panda I see your point, but I won’t be changing to an alphabetic system - but would consider stars. I know @crazycells uses ranking like this.
@phenomlab yeap, I like the stars… very intuitive…
we have them from 1 to 5, but I am considering extending it to 7. additionally we have small icons such as a youtube sign for users with youtube channels, etc.
in the past , forums used to have military rankings… captain, major, general etc. that is what the initial recommendation by our users was… sometimes these ranks would have lines and stars next to it… so the idea in the forum evolved to have only stars as ranks… users are happy with this…
@crazycells You’re both raising really good points here. The wording in all honesty was to get it started, but it’s become much more than that - particularly as original members have much higher rankings. I’ll take a look at this over the weekend.

Missed this question. This specific tag adds “author” to who originally created the topic. It’s a useful way of identifying the original poster throughout a long thread.
@Panda Just circling back here with something of an update (which I think you’ll like). I’ve completely restructured the ranking system. There are now less ranks, with a higher point threshold to reach them.
More importantly, if you reload the site, you’ll notice that the ranks are now icons.
I also removed the “Author” badge, and made this a single icon, which (to me) looks much better.
