Marlon,
Tried to send a message to all members of my group on an Android phone, only there is a problem with this. The keyboard won't launch when the message pop up appears, and the pop up wanders all over the screen. Motorola DROID...thought you might like to know...
I just embedded the doc and am about to share it, but is it possible to create a different photo/icon for it? I'm not crazy about the Hulu image. Also, one needs to register to view the doc due to nudity. Should that be stated in advance or should viewers just encounter this as they go to view?
