Hi. I'm posting now using my iPod Touch Gen 2, but have tried posting on Kindle Fire with no luck. I just get a black screen and cannot get a keyboard to pop up. Anybody that can help, I'd appreciate, as I will be getting rid of the iPod and will probably post alot more if I can use the Kindle as opposed to the desktop. Thanks for any help you can give!

ViQueen ... I have a Fire and haven't been able to post from mine. I did alittle research and found a fix for us. :)
You need to change your web view to "Mobile" view.
Here's how:
1: When you open your web browser, tap the menu at the bottom of your screen.
2: Tap on "Settings".
3: Scroll down to "Desktop or Mobile" view.
4: Click on "Mobile".
5: Close and reopen your browser.

You can now post. :D

If you want to go back to the regular view ... at the bottom of the page is link for "Classic" view.

Posting from my Kindle Fire,
Wicker

Jeez, why didn't I think of that? Thanks, Wicker! Only problem now is that it won't let me set font and color before entering text. I got used to the iPod, and I guess I will have to get used to the Fire as well!
