Well get in there. I've used up my two.

(Or Day 7)

Got a rather paltry scrap of work to do - messing around with some CSS.

Now, this is mobile content and the (bob) architect (!) has asked me to just change the layout from the corresponding existing desktop page. Same images, everything. No plan to serve different images that are scaled for mobile devices, no plan to test it in some kind of emulator. Just wants it tested in IE and FF and we're ready to go...

Somewhere on a planet far, far away is someone who gives a fck.

Unfortunately they don't use this forum.

Hth.

When most modern smartphones now have a comparable resolution to laptops, and tablets are typically even higher, why scale?

[zoco]

he wants it to be a full on conversion when all the customer wants is quick hack to meet vague criteria...

It sounds familiar....

This is a leading brand and IMO some of those images ain't going to scale well. It will reflect badly on them.

It's a simple task but I feel its my professional duty to tell them theyre doing it wrong and spend 10X as long on it for very little benefit

FTFY.

Oh no not 'professional duty'. I had a year when I believed in that. It cost be a wheelbarrow load of money. Stuff that, just do it and invoice.

depends if the bob architect is offshored or onshored and who employs him.

If he's offshored just nod and do the (half arsed) needful

[zoco]

And you are struggling with this simple task?
