After the recent changes to the way the website works, about half the time I try to enter a conditional move, the board I'm supposed to make the moves on is displayed as teeny-weeny tiny so that I can barely get my mouse in there to make a move. I almost can't even see what I'm doing. Unfortunately, I see no way to give you a screenshot of it.
@Eric-Knight saidI'll DM you an email address, thanks.

I rarely use the "conditional move" feature, but decided to try it on my laptop.
The board size was fine for me and did not change from what I normally see.
However, I made a legal move for my opponent, then made the move I would make in response, and submitted it.
They were both legal conditional moves. The board was reset to the current positions.
It did not accept the conditional move, and a message popped up that said :
"You must move your opponent's black piece before you record a move in response."
This is not a problem for me since I don't usually use the feature anyway, but I just wanted to let you know.
I'm pretty sure I did it correctly. 🙂
@mwmiller saidI'm pretty sure the reported issue is related to rotating an iPad after the page has loaded. I'm waiting for confirmation.

A bit of an edge case that I can fix, hopefully, once I know for sure.

For further info, I just logged on with my samsung android app and was able to make a conditional move in one of my waiting games, and everything worked just fine, and the move is logged and waiting. The board size was fine and did not change, and the conditional move entered just fine.
When I turned the phone sideways for a 'landscape' view, the board size shrunk down to an extremely small size, as mentioned in the OP.
But when I tried to do the conditional move on my win7 laptop using firefox, it would not work at all, as stated in my previous post in this thread.

I do not have a win 7 machine available, but did the Firefox developer console throw out any errors that you can forward on? (Toggle with f12) It may be possible work any problems .

When I tried it on my win7/firefox laptop, I did the same sequence, but when the conditional move was submitted, there was no confirmation that the moves were made, and the board just went back to the current positions.
On my keyboard, I held the fn key in, and depressed the f12 key.
A firefox page did come up on screen, but I'm not a programmer so it's all foreign to me.
I did take a screen snapshot and have a jpg. image of that page. I can send that to you if you have a way for me to do that.
However, this is not a major concern for me since I do not normally even use the 'conditional move' feature.
I may be the only one here that is still using windows 7 anyway, in case this is only a windows 7 problem.
@Russ saidI just now made another discovery, concerning the board image size, where the board size goes from normal in portrait mode, to extremely small when you turn the phone sideways to landscape mode.
I'm pretty sure the reported issue is related to rotating an iPad after the page has loaded. I'm waiting for confirmation.

When I read the OP, I wanted to see how it all worked for me, and I assumed the board size change problem was only when making a conditional move.
But it does the same thing when viewing the normal game page when using my android app.
