I've just tried to bid on the Microsculptures via my mobile (Galaxy S, Android OS). And the experience is far from ideal. Here are the problems and ideas to improve.
1. The whole header of the website (logo, menu) is fixed to the top of the screen (<div class="navbar-fixed-top">), so every time you scroll down it moves down too. Not a "big problem" on computer screen (but I don't like it anyway) but pain on mobile device as it covers 40% of the screen. Add on top of that the keyboard when you want to type anything and I can't see anything useful anymore. Idea: don't scroll the header down at all or at least not for mobiles.
1b. Anyway once user is logged in I'm not sure they are interested at all in whatever marketing information is presented in the main menu. Maybe instead show the investor menu on top of the page.
2. The table with Loans Needing Investment does not re-size and on my small screen I could only see first 2 columns (Reference and part of Title). No chance of clicking the link to view the auction and add investment. Idea: at least make the whole row (or just reference or title) clickable link that takes you to loan details. Or move the 'View' link to the first column. Any more sophisticated solution that make this list nice on mobile will also be appreciate but I can live with anything that works.
3. All the tables on the website suffer from the above problem: Investment Opportunities Coming Soon, Loans Awaiting Activation, My Current investments (here at least ref is clickable). I guess some CSS magic should solve the problem.
4. My Account menu appears always on top, on all pages. Takes time and effort to scroll below to see the actual content. Idea: Change CSS to show menu below the tables when detected small screen.
5. After login I'm redirected to My Account / Overview page. No offence but this page has absolutely no value whatsoever. Apart from the first time I'm not interested in tutorial how to use navigation or get help (all of it is in the footer anyway). Idea: Get rid of it or put some useful info on it: links to available loans, user loans summary ect. Ideally the default page to be taken after login should be (for me) Available Investments. At later stage some sort of config option for people to choose.
6. Dev suggestion: none of your pages have <title> tag. If you want to be ranked on Google or just for sanity and good practice put something useful there.
