It would be great if we could have the ability to preview of what our sites will look like in different browsers on various mobile phones, iPads and other tablets. I realize this is not trivial, but that's why they call it work. :wink

    I agree it would be nice if Smugmug helped, but one thing you can do is run a browser (e.g. IE10) that has the option to set the user agent. It also requires you know the size of the target device and change your IE window to about that size, but this does give you at least a flavor of what it will look like. I'm not sure if it's completely faithful, as I tried it only briefly (with IE10 simulating an iPad) and it did seem to appropriately fool smugmug.

    I think most of the common PC browsers have a way to set the user agent. Not sure on Mac.
