Posting photos from iDevices

The OP was from 2012. No longer relevant. Though I'm sure useful at the time.
And do NOT use photobucket. They don't allow direct links.
If you need a free image hosting site, use postimage.org

I would add one other piece of advice. Most smartphones embed location data in photos. They use the GPS chip in your phone to append the geolocation data (Lat/Long) to the meta data of the photo. I would use an exif removing app to strip that data out before you post. Otherwise you could be exposing the lat/long for your home for example.

This is good advice. One thing you can do to strip the data without an app is take a screenshot of the photo. No location is stored within a screenshot.

That function can be turned off within the phones as well, at least with iPhones.
