How to send bulk of photos?

Please help me send my photos from my phone to "The World Wide Web" without F**kbook

  • Easiest way to get photos from my phone to the web that is NOT F**kbook? I can easily send photos from my phone to Facebook, but I don't want all my "friends" to see all these photos. [I have a way to send photos from my computer to the web via an ftp program but...never mind, it's too hard to explain -- well actually it's the server of a bbs I"ve been on since 1990 called ECHO (echonyc.com) -- but that's sort of irrelevant at this point -- but I cannot figure out how to send photos to that server via my phone. That's the issue. Phone --> Web] SO..What service can I use to send photos to a website where all I have to do is have an e-mail address to send the photos to (same thing as Facebook has) and then I just tell my selected audience the url? I thought Blogger would be a good thing. I set up a mobile account but it didn't recognize it (after sending me several texts saying that it did recognize it, but then telling me that it couldn't find my mobile blog blah blah blah) so I gave up. Somebody told me about jux.com but I kept going round and round on their website reading about how wonderful they are, but I didn't want to join without access to SPECIFIC directions about how to send from my mobile phone (which is an LG chocolate touch -- not really a smartphone << important point!) which I couldn't find. Same with tumblr. If you have a FREE service like one of these to recommend, could you tell me HOW to set up things so I can take a picture with my phone and immediately tell it to send it to -- "the web" -- via e-mail with a little caption I can write on my phone?? I have to say that, as much as I despise Facebook, they make this easy to do (i.e., even I was able to find and follow their directions pretty easily). Please don't tell me to select certain Facebook friends as my audience. The problem is that many of the people I really like who "get" me and my photos and captions are Facebook refuseniks, and I love and respect them for that! Thank you.

But seriously, anything but Flickr. Gah. Any real reason why? I know Yahoo aren't in the healthiest place, but Flickr seems to be as valid a photo hosting place as ever. Why is Picasa a much better option?

Sign up to Flickr. Go to http://www.flickr.com/help/photos/ (same as the second link in Spinifex's post. The second paragraph, right at the top, covers exactly what you need to do. Once you've signed up, visiting http://www.flickr.com/account/uploadbyemail/ (also in spinifex's post) will provide all the information you could possibly ask for.

Yeah, my Android phone is set to automatically upload photos and videos I take with it to G+ (and by default Picasa), Flickr, and whatever else I choose. They queue up in an 'uploaded files' folder until I select them to share. This just Sort of Worked when I turned my phone on and logged into my respective accounts—it's pretty great.

go into a verizon store (or alltel, or whoever your phone company is) - ask them. it'll be easier than trying to figure it out online/over the phone. it looks like the LG chocolate uses "dolby mobile" which makes troubleshooting this issue a little harder. on my windows mobile and droid phones, i was able to install a 3rd party file manager software that made all of this a lot easier. not sure if that's an option for you.

Picasa is pretty easy to share with via a smartphone.

I haven't really played with it, but I think Google+ uploads pictures automatically, presumably accessible from picasa.

Ugh, I meant F***book. Too impulsive today.
