Images from cellphone to php

[drumgor]

I need to capture images sent from cellphones using C# and sending them as a byte stream, and store them in a folder on a web site where the code is all PHP.

I am told Web Services (possibly NuSOAP) is the way to go but having looked at it, it seems that it is designed for a client to request data and the server to send, not the client to send data and the server store it.

Any pointers as to the right direction to go to create this functionality would be greatly appreciated.

do you have a particular platform/phone to do this for (symbian, android, winmo...) ?
is it strictly for smartphones with internet connectivity (wifi, 2g, 3g) and full fledged browsers?
or do you mean via mms from any old phone ?

In nubs's former case (wifi etc. with web browser) you can provide a web page with a form the user can upload the image with.

In the latter case (MMS), most if not all phones that can send an MMS can send it to an email address. You'd then have a program monitoring that address's inbox and parsing incoming emails (the photo will be a MIME attachment, and the sender's phone number will be in the From: email address).
