Just testing. Impossible to load a Picture, because the "Browse" Button doesn't browse a blessed doo-doo. But I'll learn, as I always do.

Yup. I actually sent a video to the Kinja techs showcasing the issues with using the site on Windows Phone.

If you try UCBrowser, the upload button does work. It lets you select a photo, submit the post, and see the file name (instead of the picture) in said post.

Have you set IE to load the mobile or desktop versions of websites?

Which model did you get?

I've discovered that navigating kinja on my WP8 takes a moment to figure out, but it's workable. Haven't ever tried to upload a photo, though.

I never said it was a decent browser

Only that it allows us to get one step closer to posting pics

Ah, damnit, I got a little excited. How bad is it? I guesse I'll find out in short order.

It's clunky and I don't really like the UI. It makes my Windows Phone feel kinda like an iThing

AT least you CAN post. Somehow I got kicked out of the Oppo club....?

Kinja and Windows Phone are kind of at odds. This is, admittedly, something we need to address but the ecosystem makes up for such a low percentage of our traffic that it's hard to prioritize. That said, thanks for the report, the more complaints we get the easier it is to raise priority.
