There was a time when all you had to think about, when deciding on the layout of your website, was the most popular screen resolutions.

But now, you have to consider mobile devices… phones, tablets, netbooks and anything else that lets you browse when you’re on the move.

Fortunately Elegant Themes has brought out Evolution a responsive WordPress theme that adapts to your user’s screen size automatically and instantly.

Now your website will display beautifully on whatever device is being used to browse.

Evolution uses CSS3 media queries to trigger different layout sets at various screen sizes.

This provides a seamless way for the layout to degrade at smaller sizes, as the design can change on the fly without any page loading and without any tricky javascript.

If you want to know what mobile devices are accessing your site, take a peek at your Google Analytics and check out Overview > Mobile > Operating system.

This is a list of mobile devices taken from my Google Analytics for this site…
Apple iPhone, Apple iPad, Apple iPod Touch, HTC Desire, HTC Desire Z, Samsung GT-I9000, Galaxy S, Samsung GT-I9100, Galaxy S II, SonyEricsson LT15i, Xperia Arc, Verizon Droid.

Looks as though more and more of us are browsing with our moble devices… and the numbers are about to really take off.
