I downloaded Carbon from the App Catalog recently and LOVE it...but I am having an issue when it comes to uploading photos to Twitpic. I thought when I uploaded a photo to post on Twitpic, the tweet accompanying it would be used as a caption. However, when I look at the Twitpic page, the caption is not there. I've uploaded a couple of photos with Carbon and have not had any success in making sure the tweets show up as captions (nor can I figure out how to add them on the Twitpic page via the web browser on my laptop or Sprint Pre). Help please?

    Hey Tim,

    You're not doing anything wrong, currently when you upload a photo to Twitpic Carbon does not post your tweet along with the photo as Carbon uploads the photo before sending the tweet. Twitpic on the other hand does not allow editing the photos uploaded as in adding a Caption to it.

    If you want your uploaded images to be using the caption from your tweet, you can change the Image service in the Preferences to Yfrog as it automatically adds the caption from your tweet.

    Hope that helps.
