Hi Nick, I was looking at the code from the link below and was noticing a couple of things that might need to be considered when building for mobile devices. Primarily the need for skins to be Multi-DPI capable. It doesn't seem like you have taken this into account. Also I would suggest using the MobileButtonSkin based off of the Mobile skin class instead of using the SparkButtonSkin for buttons. Just some suggestions.
