Edited photo when shared reverts to original

So I thought I'd give iPhoto a shot to use instead of Instagram and the likes since I've never used them and didn't want to use instagram now since FB owns your pictures once uploaded. Anywho, I edited the photo to my liking, I clicked on share and no matter which choice I select, it sends out the original (Twitter, FB, email, etc..) Anybody know why it does that? From everyting I've read when I edit and share it should send the edited one, or at least the one in front of me when I click share. Most recent iPhoto on iPhone 4.

Works ok on my iPhone 4 so far. What kind of edits are you doing?

So, all I do is start up iPhoto. I select a picture from my camera roll, I then select effects and add... lets just say a vintage one. I now looks "vintage" and how I want it, I then select share. At this point, no matter what I choose (email, facebook, twitter, etc.) it always shares the original and not the vintage one. Is there a way that I have to "apply" the effect other than choosing it? I even say "add to camera roll" for the edited one, and it just duplicates the original.

Update: Never mind. I closed all programs. Restarted my phone and tried a different photo and now it's working. A bug? I swear that it would not work on my most recently taken photo.

Did you have a lot of other apps in the background before restarting? Maybe iPhoto didn't have enough memory to render the edited version? Or maybe it was a problem with that particular photo?
