You can use http://dev.twitpic.com/
Post your image in http request here.
Here is the code -
-(void)postToTwitter
{
// create the URL
NSURL *postURL = [NSURL URLWithString:@"http://api.twitpic.com/1/uploadAndPost.xml"];
// create the connection
NSMutableURLRequest *postRequest = [NSMutableURLRequest requestWithURL:postURL
cachePolicy:NSURLRequestUseProtocolCachePolicy
timeoutInterval:30.0];
// change type to POST (default is GET)
[postRequest setHTTPMethod:@"POST"];
// create data
NSMutableData *postBody = [NSMutableData data];
NSString *username = emailTextField.text;
NSString *password = passTextField.text;
NSString *consumer_token=@"consumer token";
NSString *consumer_secret=@"consumer secret ";
NSString *oauth_token=@"oauth token";
NSString *oauth_secret=@"oauth secret";
NSString *api_key=@"api key";
NSString *message = commentTxt.text;
// just some random text that will never occur in the body
NSString *stringBoundary = @"0xKhTmLbOuNdArY---This_Is_ThE_BoUnDaRyy---pqo";
// header value
NSString *headerBoundary = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"multipart/form-data; boundary=%@",stringBoundary];
// set header
[postRequest addValue:headerBoundary forHTTPHeaderField:@"Content-Type"];
// username part
[postBody appendData:[[NSString stringWithFormat:@"--%@\r\n", stringBoundary] dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];
[postBody appendData:[[NSString stringWithString:@"Content-Disposition: form-data; name=\"username\"\r\n\r\n"] dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];
[postBody appendData:[username dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];
[postBody appendData:[@"\r\n" dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];
// password part
[postBody appendData:[[NSString stringWithFormat:@"--%@\r\n", stringBoundary] dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];
[postBody appendData:[[NSString stringWithString:@"Content-Disposition: form-data; name=\"password\"\r\n\r\n"] dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];

[activity_bg setHidden:NO];
[activityIndicator startAnimating];
NSURLConnection *theConnection = [[NSURLConnection alloc] initWithRequest:postRequest delegate:self];
if( theConnection )
{
webData = [[NSMutableData data] retain];
}
else
{
NSLog(@"theConnection is NULL");
}
}
Hope this helps you :)
You can't upload images directly to twitter. You need to use an image service such at twitpic, which will have it's own api - http://twitpic.com/api.do (there are many alternatives eg yfrog).
You could UIImagePickerController to get an image, and then just write some code to post to your chosen image service.
