I know what you mean. I haven't tried with Internet Explorer yet today, but if you have Google Chrome on your computer, which is free to upload, or Firefox which I think is also available free, LJ seems to work perfectly with either of those. I don't like posting via Google Chrome, but it does work well enough. I just have to remember to enlarge the text, otherwise it comes out tiny. This seems to be a compatibility problem between LJ and Windows Internet Explorer or something. I just hope it gets sorted soon.
