The way I do it.
Get a photobucket account.
Register for free at Photobucket.com | Photobucket

then get the photobucket app for your phone. (I could post a link, but you should probably go to google play and just search for photobucket on your phone, that way you can install it on your phone.

Then, log into the app with the info you used to setup the photobucket account.

Now, when you get that set up, you can go to the images page on your phone, where it shows all your pictures, click menu, then share, then photbucket should be in the list.

That should take the picture off of your phone and put it into your photobucket account.

Then if you log into your photobucket account, you can find the picture and copy the link to it, then post that link on the listing you want to create.

Another way would be be to add the picture to your photo album in your profile. I did this for my for sale ads .
First you need to create a photo album.
Second you click on choose file at which point you should be able to add from your gallery.
Then click upload. It should resize to the correct size if not it will fail and you will need to resize it on your phone.
After this go to the picture copy the link given below the picture.
create your thread click the image icon and paste the link.

May also help to know which phone you have Haha.

I use Tinypic.com
Don't need to down an app. Very easy. Just go to tinypic.com you upload a picture and then you can cut and paste the pic to add to a fourm or web site.

I'd go with danielson, photobucket allows you to uplead directly from your phone to their website. once you get rollin' it's pretty simple to figure it all out.

What part are you having problems with? Are you trying to download to Photobucket or a different photo sharing site?

Tell us what are you currently doing so we can add in the missing areas for you.

The way I describe I am able go directly from my phone as well.
The only two downsides you could say are using extra ingo space having a picture and you may have to resize the picture on your phone.

As gun girl said let us know where u get stuck and which way you are attempting.

Tinypic has a nasty habit of recycling the addresses for pics when the pic isn't accessed for a long time. We've run into issues on INGO where, months later, the pic has been replaced by something incorrect at best and pornographic at worst. Since then, I've started using Imgur for throwaway pics where I don't want to register an account and maintain an album.

Thank you all. I will just have to get someone
to walk me thru this. I am going to keep trying.

I use photobucket, but I don't use the app. One you have your account, go to the bottom of the page and click full site. Then, at the top, you will have the option to upload. Hit that, and you will have the option to browse.

If you already have Photobucket on your phone

Select apps or if you already have Photobucket on one of the screens touch Photobucket.

Select Photobucket

Press settings to log in

Select Login

Enter your username & password and press Login

I select no to automatic uploads because I do not want any pics going anywhere all by themselves.

Select Upload Options if you need to change the default album your pictures will download to. If you only have one album you can skip this step and go directly to Upload.

Select Default Album

Select preferred album & then press ok

Press the back button

Select Upload

Select Upload Image for pictures or Upload Video for videos.

Touch the pictures you want to download. The selected ones will have a check mark. Swipe your finger upwards to show all of the pictures on that page. If all of the pictures you want to download are on the first page touch done after all of the desired pics are selected. Otherwise touch Next. Then choose Done or Next after all of the desired pics are selected.

This shows the pictures being downloaded to Photobucket.

You should be able to see your pics in the selected library on Photobucket.

My phone is way smarter than I am on most things. Downloading pics is one of the few things I can do with it. Let me know if you need help downloading pics to text messages or Facebook.

I haven't figured out how to be able to do anything with pics people send me though. When I had a not so smart phone I could download them to my phone. I haven't found a way to save them with my Droid yet.
