It would be cool if the tmf staff or mods would hav a go at creating an app for the iPhone
if this could be intergrate to the main forum and itsfree to create

I'm sure there's more than just me who have an iPhone

Fantastic Idea - But it's a case of finding the time to do it, and Run/Moderate a forum at the same time.....

What would the application do that logging into the forum normally on an iPhone couldn't?

Perhaps some More 'Apple Savvy' Members could share some light on what's involved?

im not sure exactly whats involved in making it but i know the software is free to download to create it

it could give push notifications so you get like a messege tone when someone has replied to your topics ect
i think although the iphone internet browser is practicaly the same as safari on your pc, it would be awsome to just open the app on your phone
rather than have to navigate through pages on the internet

You can add a TMF shortcut button to your homescreen - I don't even have to log in. And I'm doing this from the bath!

This would skin the site up, so that when someone accesses it from an iphone or ipod touch it would be optimised for their browser. http://www.skinsforiphone.com/

You can also set a custom logo for any site bookmarked on an iphone or ipod. You need to create a PNG format graphic file that's 45x45 pixels in size, name it apple-touch-icon.png and drop it in the root directory of the Web site.

Would be nice to have a real logo instead of a zoomed in webpage preview.
