Can you give me some photobucket help?

I do not know why I have successfully made this work in the past but can't upload pictures originating from my cellphone. The cell pictures were emailed to my computer. I picked them up and saved them in a directory on my computer. So I opened Photobucket and tried to upload them without success. I am driving myself crazy over this. I see the message about a mis-matched extension. I see that some of the saved photos have jpg extension at the end of the name, but there is also a JPEG (I think) so somewhere I am out of sync in what I am doing.

So I am not sure if when I am saving them, I do something wrong.

Can you help?

Thanks,

Sam

If you download the free app for PB, you will be amazed at how much easier it is to upload & share photos. I am really happy about having the app for my phone.

Hey Samantha,

This is Russ, from Photobucket. I saw your question and I think I have the answer.

Pacalo is right, uploading from mobile is a breeze with the Photobucket app.

Here is how it works:

Step number one You’ll need to get the app. You can do this from your computer by clicking [url=http://photobucket.com/mobile]here[/url]. Select the Photobucket Mobile app by clicking “Get It.” Then simply enter your phone number and a link will be sent to you via text message.

Alternatively, you can search for the app in the App Store or Marketplace and download it that way.

Step number two Find the photo you want to post and click on its info button.

Step number three If you want to paste the image directly into the text of the post you are writing, grab its IMG code by clicking here, and paste it in.
