Wanted: Picture-to-LJ ability

[coalescent]

So I've got my nice new Sony Ericsson T610 (even though I had to drive over to High Wycombe to collect it on Saturday morning, because they can only deliver it when I'm at work) and I'm having a lot of fun playing around with it (even though I can't transfer my old number until Wednesday because O2 are upgrading their customer service. Or something). One of the nifty things about this phone is that it has a built-in camera.

I want to be able to post pictures direct to livejournal.

The only problem is, I have no idea how to make it happen. I can email myself the pictures and then link to them next time I'm at a computer, but that doesn't have the same thrill of immediacy. And post-by-email won't work because it doesn't handle attachments. But I can't believe that there isn't a way to do this, so I thought I'd throw the question open to all the knowledgeable types on my friends list (*cough*tinyjo*cough*).

Anyone got any ideas?

In other news, I had an busy weekend that I may detail later, and my current icon won the poll, with the quarter-alethiometer a reasonably close second.

All MMS messages are actually SMIL in an SMTP envelope, so all the elements are sent as if they were an email with attachments. Some operators, like Orange, do MMS to email gateways, so it's not too difficult to do...

Yes, I can send emails with attached images at the moment.

The app I've written strips the messages apart, turns the text into the body of a post, ftps the image to a known site, and generates an image tag to point to the URI of the uploaded image.
