i may be the last to know, but I discovered something new today.  

If I tap on the address line up there ^^^ then pull down the menu I get "request desktop site".  Now I have the hover feature and access to all the emoticons.  

Still think I need to go to chrome to post photos etc but it's better than nothing.

I posted that small photo in a previous post using safari.

When the reply box first opened up some of the little icon boxes were blank, but once I clicked on them the icons appeared.

Then there are phablets amber...... I don't use my phone much for internet stuff since I got my ipad. I do have whatsapp on the mobile so people can msg me and send photos through that via wifi. Especially good for overseas contacts, it doesn't cost anything, as would sending a text or mms.

Yep, I seem to have the full text box and all its functions now.

I may never leave my armchair  just kidding!!

You rock Lurker, and thanks to you too am*

Yay! You're right!  I couldn't make that happen earlier.

We're no longer banished from the delights of full posting

Yes...phablets 🙂 I have a Galaxy tab with SIM capability, too. Use it for reading.

Yeah, thanks to you we can now invade threads with quoted posts, photos and lots of emoticons... from our ipads.

Lurker, iPads and eBay are an interesting combination but it is doable 🙂 I don't even have a PC anymore.

[lurker172602]

I think it was you amber who first put me onto chrome to post pics etc?  I have found it be a bit glitchy sometimes.  I think this safari solution might be a bit better.

[amber-eyed-girl]

hmmmm

Might have been me...I was getting frustrated at only being able to post piccies as attachments here.

Both can be a bit glitchy, it can be eBay at fault too. Deb was asking about posting pics in the My Day thread a while back, put up the Safari desktop site access in there somewhere from memory, but not everyone goes in there 😉

I have been getting the odd message that my pics are too big to post, too. To fix that I go back into Photos, bring it up again, then take a screenshot, edit it to remove everything except the original pic then use that one...sigh.
