Okay I've got a new one.

So now that I've gotten used to putting pictures I want to post in threads on external site (photobucket), now I would like to post one of the pictures from my photobucket account into the gallery. I'm not finding any way to do that.

In the gallery it seems to only want to accept pictures that I upload from my computer. Is this the case? What am I missing?

Thanks for any ideas.

Yep - for posts and signatures, use a link from an outside hosting site embedded in between the 2 img tags - for the gallery, upload them straight onto the site from your computer.

Ahh, Parker to the rescue. Thanks buddy.

Kind of a bummer though, I'd gotten used to taking pics with my phone and just sending straight to the outside site for dispersal, bypassing messing with the 'puter at all.

It's good to have an answer.

If you have internet on your phone, you can always come to the site and upload the pic from your phone.

I did it just now - I turned on my phone's wifi (because I'm home - away from here, I'd use 3G mobile data), came to the site via my phone, went to my gallery, hit upload, then took a pic of my PC screen with your post on it and uploaded it to the BFP gallery directly from my phone (see my gallery).

Let's assume I'm a neophyte; safe assumption.

When I take a picture on my phone it goes to an onboard camera roll. From there I hit the share button at which point I can email it to my photobucket account (what I do now), or text it to an individual. I also have options for Twitter and Facebook which I do not use. Beyond that I can assign it to a contact, print, copy, or use as wallpaper.

Would I be using one of these options? Or going from my phone's browser and this site to navigate back to the camera roll?

I am on an iPhone 4s.

Thanks for all the help.

hey there Kelt - go to your gallery.. at the bottom there's an upload photo choice, click it.. then chose upload and you should be able to upload an existing photo from your phone
