pictures are uploaded to the forum through picture hosting sites (photobucket to name one) so as long as the app store has an app for the site your hosting from i dont see why not as the host site usually always gives you an option to copy a link to your picture then you put that link in your post.

You don't actually need to do it via an app (though it's probably easier), you can just do straight from the Photobucket site in Safari.  Just select you chosen image in the hosting website and copy and paste the image link into your post.

lol would safari allow you to upload to the chosen hosting site though? if the pictures are already on the hostng site then it would be okay but what if you want to put pictures you have just taken with your ipad up?
