    No. Nothing. F**k. But the wee dots are very helpful, thanks. Maybe I will get used to this new view. Although I can't understand why I cannot switch back as simple as I switch on this mobile version...

    The Deathlist Howto

    Thank you very much for your response, Charon. I tried everything you said (and tried some things before), but nothing changed. I've bookmarked the official homepage where I still can see Henry Cecil, everything is fine. I have the choice between mobile and standard version and I can switch between them and still everthing is fine. I prefer the standard version (even on my mobile which is Android by the way). Well, it's different and complicated when I click on DeathList Forums - they are only shown in the f**king mobile version which confuses me. If I want to read a new post in a topic I always have to begin with the very first page! Not funny when there is a thread with 50 pages !!! And if I would like to change between mobile and standard - there is no option on the site and this toggle-thing doesn't work. Two days ago everything was fine. But then I clicked on mobile version and everything changed. I miss this f**king backwards-button or whatever! I want my old view back!!! Can somebody help me (again), please!

    The 3rd of July will always be remembered as a day with two tragic losts for the music business: Brian Jones, lead guitarist of the Rolling Stones in 1969, and Jim Morrison, lead singer of The Doors just two years later. Both artists died on drug related circumstances, both deaths left many questions and that’s their entry for the legendary Club 27 (which was created many years later).

    Most probably you are right. But in his class and standing they might would rather say "crown jewels" than balls!
