Fastest way of saving a photo to Gallery/Images

Jan 21.

I just discovered that you can quickly save a copy of a photo from your Nokia C3 My Photos album to the Gallery/Images where Facebook application expects to find the photo.

Pick a photo by browsing after pressing Menu > Photos > My Photos.

Next select Edit Photo.
Click on Options.
Press on Save.

That's it! You may elect to delete the photo in you My Photos album afterwards.
Now you can easily upload or post your photo to Facebook.

I am always reviewing my posts for accuracy, but today, I discover this does NOT work anymore. Use the old method.

How to post a photo as your Facebook status.

Jan. 21: Flash! There is a faster way to save photos in Gallery/Images where the C3 Facebook application looks for photos to upload: Please click on Fastest way...


I have rewritten the procedure.

You can only upload photos to Facebook from the Gallery/Images folder of the Applications menu of the C3. So here are the steps:

1. open the gallery from the Menu/Apps.
2. click on a photo album (subdirectory in gallery) which is different from gallery/Images! this is usually "NO NAME". The others are Images (where the FB app expects your photos to be in), Video clips,
Music Files, Themes, Graphics,Tones,Recordings,Received files.
3. select the photo
4. click on option
5. move to gallery/Images

Now that you have a photo in gallery/Images,
1. open your Facebook home page in the C3
2. You will be normally presented with the FB new status editor. Cancel to go to the FB menu page.
Select upload photo by selecting the camera icon from the choices given on the top: (messages, events,recent list,friend requests, camera).This will give you a popup menu asking to select Gallery or Camera.
3. Choose Gallery.
4. Select the photo.
5. Click on options, choose add Caption.
6. Click on share and you should be done.
Someday, one should be able to upload entire albums instead of a single photo!
We should expect this feature from Nokia.

Next time we will post pics. if only the C3 has a savescreen feature!
