Default first smart phone

be gently guys. I am about to take a huge leap forwar in technoligy and get my very first smart phone

I have a question, can I take pic on phone and post it straight onto forum. rather than what I have to do now as in take pic with camera,load pic onto i/shack, then copy link to forum which I find very time consuming and tbh a pain in the you know what. I like the idea of being able to post a pic while out rather than late evening by time I'm settled home for the night

I don't use Tapatalk, but I can post pics straight from my phone using the Manage Attachments option when posting, it opens up your phone's image gallery, just select your pic & job done.

If you're getting an android phone, you can sign up to Google+ (like Facebook).
You don't have to use the account for social rubbish, but you can set the app to upload your photos from your phone as and when you take them (unlimited number).
It's all automatic, I use it instead of Flickr.
You can then post links to the photos you want to post.

Tapatalk also allows you to post pictures straight to the site, but only smallish ones.

I recently bought a nexus 7 tablet, so have seen this google+ thingy but tbh avoided it as to me it did look like a facebook kinda thing. didnt know you dont have to do the social rubbish as you put it oh and yes my phone will most probably be an nexus4 as it seam great value and will perform far more tricks than I will ever need it to ?

guys taa for the replies {including ronnie with tapatalktam } I probably should have started this thread with I intend to buy an nexus 4 for my first ever smart phone, opinions ?
bearing in mind i'm not a gadget man and intend to have this phone for at least 5 years. so thought start with latest android then it will take at least 6 months to start falling behind
joking aside I dont do games on phone. will never wish to watch a film ect ect. will probs load some sounds so I can frizby all those CDs out the window instead of them pilled up on dash, seat pockets ect.
it would be usefull for me to not have to stay home when I need to be somewhere because I'm waiting for a PM or email for example.

Hi, I have an iPhone and use tapatalk to gain access to the forum, this is very useful and you can easily attach pictures etc. This isn't exclusive to apple/iPhone btw just my own experience as I'm currently looking at Samsung Galaxy S3.
Regards

Tony
