Is that an android phone? If so there is a photo bucket app you can install, this will allow you to upload direct from your phone. You can tether your laptop to your phone if you set it up as a wireless hotspot but it will depend on the contract you're on as to whether you'll get charged for it or not. Some plans allow tethering and some don't.

Recently got a galaxy S3 on the 3 network - they told me all the other networks have started charging for tethering on new phone contracts, although most older contracts include it free. Guess they needed to do it to protect the sales of the USB dongles.

Photobucket android app is good though

Three PAYG will charge for tethering, I believe it's only their "One Plan" that includes tethering for free unfortunately.
