How Do You Forward A Picture From E-mail To Facebook?

Answer Question

2 Answers - Sort by: Date | Rating

    If there is a way to do this directly, I don't know about it, but I don't think there is.  You can post a link to a picture you've found online, but Facebook wants to make sure the pictures you put in albums are really yours, not something that you took from someone else.  So if you want to post a picture somebody sent you in an email, the best way to do it is to save the emailed picture in a file on your computer.  Then go on Facebook to upload the the picture from your files (either by creating an album or simply uploading it to your wall).

      • Sign onto your Facebook account.and look at the top menu items.

      • at the top, choose SETTINGS


        • from there choose the  MOBILE tab (even if you don't have a mobile phone, I believe this will work.)


          • look in the upper right hand corner for 'Go to Facebook Mobile>>'  and click on it.

          • Look to the first heading on the left which says, Upload Photos via Email


            • under that heading, click on "Send my upload email to me now"


              • a window will pop up that says "send me my personal upload email" and you will be provided a text box containing the external email address that facebook has on file for you -- this is where they will send you your personal upload email address.  

              • click on SEND EMAIL

            • facebook will confirm that they sent an email to you

            • NOW, open up another browser window or tab and check your email for the one facebook sent to the address you indicated

            • inside the email from facebook will be an email address just for you to use to send pics and vids straight to your profile.

          • if you have some pics in an email that you want to forward on to your profile, after you click FORWARD, you will put this new weird little email address in the TO section.

          • delete whatever is in the SUBJECT section and call the pictures whatever you want.

          • I would also suggest you delete any other forwarding headers that are in the email.  

          • leave it to where the email contains only the pics you want to post to your profile, and any descriptive text.  (facebook will publish whatever text is there, so just an fyi)

          • when you're done, click send.  

        • give it  a few minutes to post on your wall.  


      IF facebook requires you to set up a mobile account before you can do this, then let me know via email and I'll help ya out.
