have you found the photo storage in your phone?

After taking a photo or recording a video you can upload it to a sharing service, such as Facebook or SkyDrive.

To open the camera, press the camera key.
Take a photo or record a video.
Swipe right. Tap options icon > share....
Select how you want to share, and follow the instructions.
To make sharing easier, you can set Facebook or SkyDrive as your quick share account. The quick share account is in the menu when you start sharing.
To set the quick share account, on the start screen, swipe left, and tap settings iconSettings. Swipe to applications, and tap pictures+camera > Quick Share Account and the account.
Using services or downloading content may cause transfer of large amounts of data, which may result in data traffic costs.
Not all sharing services support all file formats or videos recorded in high quality.

None of that makes any sense! I have got photos I want to share. So I tap on photo to bring it up. Then press the three little dots which ask me where I want to share and I click share on Skydrive. then it goes back to the photo and nothing else happens, nothing on the Skydrive page on the computer!

sorry, i don't know any further than that, - what options do you get if you share to facebook

That's my point! I don't know how to share to facebook! There doesn't seem to be anything that says share to facebook.

mccfluff

can you get into facebook on your phone?

Can you email them to yourself?

I can get facebook, but I have no idea how to send them or email them to myself. All I get when I bring up a photo is the three little dots then it asks where I want to share and the only options are share (which then says messaging, yahoo mail or skydrive) I then type in email address/press send whichever I choose nothing happens!

mccfluff

if you are in facebook and press photo (in fb) where does that take you?

ummmm

If I open my photos (Lumia something or other) it's giving me the option to..

Message
Hotmail
OneNote
WhatsApp.

Install Facebook on your phone and then it will appear in the share options.

I simply have to go Photos > Camera Roll > Share > Facebook...

Are you using the same skydrive details as your MS account used on the phone?

What happens when you plug your phone into your PC, can you not access your pics that way?

ummmm

I have facebook on mine but it doesn't appear in the share list :-(

mccfluff

you may need to set up your accounts on the phone

Set up your social networking service accounts.

On the start screen, swipe left, and tap settings iconSettings > email+accounts.
Tap add an account and the name of the service, and follow the instructions shown.
When you sign in to an account, contacts in the account are automatically imported.
