M/S Surface Pro Problems

When accessing my new site on the Microsoft Surface Pro I have two problems. Are these known Bugs?

The lack of "forward and Back" buttons in the Smugmug Gallery style make navigating the photos difficult (no keyboard arrow keys).

The screen goes blank (not entirely but...) when returning from full size picture viewing (see image below).

    The lack of a visible button is certainly a challenge. I just gave it a try, and the best I could do was manually keep up with which thumbnail I was on, and touch the next. Not intuitive. If you want to accommodate that, I think there's a thread around about how to highlight the selected thumbnail with some kind of CSS magic.

    I have a Surface Pro running 8 (not 8.1) and I just tried with IE (which I think you are using above) and I couldn't reproduce the black. I went to the gallery shown and went back and forth to different images in full screen (just touch image right? Not some other option?) and then closed with the "X" and always got a full display when it returned.

    I notice you are using the 8.1 Preview version above, which probably has a later IE. I hate to say it but you might be a bit ahead of the game, I don't know if Smugmug would have done any testing in the preview versions (but I am not smugmug,they might respond).

    I also use Chrome on the Pro (prefer it actually) and I haven't had any issues with it either.

    I concur, surface pro running 8 does not have the black screen issue, but surface pro running 8.1 does. I hope that is an IE bug that is being fixed.

    I also am puzzled at the lack of photo navigation buttons in the smugmug gallery style. But since I have become a big fan of the collage landscape style when using a touch device. I would like to see them add the navigation buttons back for smugmug style, and make them large like in the lightbox so it works equally well for touch.
