uploading pictures on moto droid... frustration

[jeffrayj83]

Would anyone know how to upload pics? Is it possible on this so called superphone? I love this phone but am concidering a different phone that will solve my issue... I really need to upload pics to craigslist... its a source of income for me and no pictures in my adds really hurts the sale possibilities... please help! I know there's somebody out there that can help me... thank you much, jeff.

I do not post photos but I opened my Gallery and selected a photo. When I tap share, I can send to Picasa, messaging, bluetooth, Touiteur (Twitter), Handcent SMS, Email via my corporate account, Gmail, or K9.

I am rooted so perhaps my options are different.

Email it to yourself. Open it on your PC. Save to desktop. Upload to Craig's.

What is rooted exactly? And unfortunately my laptop crashed... no big deal really but I'm just hoping to resolve this issue... I've heard that when 3.0 comes out and is able to be downlaoded I will be able to upload but that may be an untrusted source...

Haven't tried it myself, but last I heard Opera was the only browser for the droid that supports uploads at this time. This was the case before the latest Opera beta, so I don't know if it's still true.

Just checked opera and it does appear that you can upload w/ that browser.

You might try searching for a Craigslist app as well. A quick search returned this one for me, but I in no way vouch for it from personal experience: craigsphone (craigslist) for Android - AndroidZoom.com

I really thank you all for your input but I'm definately not able to upload pictures still... I've tried opera mini and craigsphone and still no luck..

Craigsphone app worked thanx!

Rooting your phone involves taking the steps to gain full administrative access to the phone. In doing so you open the door to customizing just about all aspects of the phone by altering the graphics as well as being able to run and install software you can't install without root powers, such as installing a kernel that allows you to overclock the phone's CPU or to install a wifi-tethering app that will allow your laptop to connect to the internet through your cell phone and it's connection to the internet via the cell towers. "root" is the admin userid name in the unix/linux world and Android is based on Linux, hence the term rooting or to gain root access.

Looks like you've got your pictures uploaded, good luck!

Wow thanx for the root question answer, sounds like stuff I might not have time to do... although I would like my motodroid to stand out from the rest... I don't want to mess up anything on it... I royaly demolished a htc touch pro 2 by messing around with a windows 6.5 operating software upgrade... maybe modifications aren't something I should be doing lol... no big deal if I feel the need to mod my droid I think ill just ask someone who has done it before to do me the favor of doing it for me...
