I love my razr maxx, until today, since getting the ics global update, i cannot send pics in text messages. I've rebooted the phone hard booted the phone, it always says its going to resize the picture, but then always says its too big and cant be sent. Anyone else with this problem or a fix?

So the re-sizing is failing instead of the text message failing to send the picture?  Try reducing the MP settings in the camera to a lower resolution and then try sending the picture. 

Also did you factory reset the phone after the update?  Going from Gingerbread (2.3.4) to ICS (4.0.3 or 4.0.4) is a large operating system update.  You might have some leftover code causing the re-sizing to fail or third-party application conflict.

I'm most definitely NOT a VZW employee. If a post answered your question, please mark it as the answer.

I did try to reduce the mp settings in the camera, however there are only 2 options now, 6mp and 8mp i was already on 6. I did not do the factory reset, not sure how, and don't want to lose anything i have already

  The factory reset will remove all the apps and things from your phone. It will not remove the items on your SD card though... There are apps out there that can backup SMS and other things, but it will be like setting the phone up when you first got it.
