Please. Can anyone help me see stars?

Want to donate a star but I'm not tech savvy enough apparently. Was thinking if one of my favorite contributors didn't have a star, that's who I'd donate to but can't see ANY stars--not on my phone, not on the computer, not when I take my phone out of dark mode. I'm out of ideas to try.

Thanks for any help.

Don't know the answer but it sounds as if the poster wants to donate a star to someone other than herself. Marie Marie Aug 2025 #4

Either poster is confusing this fund drive with the Valentine hearts drive or she just wants to contribute for some one else to get a star. Did I explain that correctly EverHopeful and can anyone answer that scenario?

Sorry I wasn't clear. Donated and I have a gift star to donate but can't see who already has star membership. I'll try again to figure it out after some sleep.

Make sure you are on "desktop" mode. Send a du msg to EarlG. I think this link will work but if not go to his profile and send from there.
