I can get pictures into photo bucket just fine.
But how do you get a paint document into photo bucket to post??
Maybe I'm over thinking it?

Photobucket should allow you to upload a pic after saving it after editing it in paint without any issues. When you 'save as' after using paint, try saving the pic file as a jpg file, for example, pic1.jpg ... I save it to my desktop then upload the pic into Photobucket from there.

I'm trying to send to iPhone as a .doc
Then trying to upload.
I'll have to try filing as .jpg first.

Thanks
