Photobucket App

Love it. Makes it simple to get pictures from my phone directly to photobucket, so I can post here, or link to it. It's really simple to use, IMO. It does lack some features, like the ability to delete pictures from the application, but overall, it makes life a little more simple for me.

i tried it a couple months ago, and it was absolutely horrible. i couldn't upload a picture without it crashing.

Maybe they've fixed the bugs, but I'm content with just emailing the pics to my account. works like a charm.

It just came out last week.

Nevermind. End of April. Oh well, it works really nice now.

have you tried the email thing?

it's a breeze. just add a contact with the email they give you in the pic above. whenever you need to upload a pic, tap it, tap the email button, search for "photo...", send, done.

no app needed. especially if they don't let you edit or manage your galleries.

This is how Ive been using Photobucket also. The only thing I dont like about the email method is that I have to fire up a Safari browser window in order to grab the link to post the IMG code.
Does the standalone app solve this problem? Can I grab the IMG code right from the app?

Not that I could figure out.

Since this app is free I decided to DL it and give it a try. Hippo, you are right, I find the email method much easier. The app does not include the IMG or HTML code for easy copy and paste from the iPhone. Maybe they will update now that the iPhone actually has copy and paste. But as it stands now, Ill stick with emailing the pics to photobucket.

Have you figured out how to copy the link from your account in mobile
safari? I can't get the text selected in order to do so. Quite annoying.
