Sending MMS message

I have friends that send me animated pics with sound. I receive them and view them fine.  I try to forward them or save them to my phone and then send them as MMS they do not send.  All I get is a red X next to the message.  I can open the message and it is all there but says failed to send message.  I have tried to send it to my wife's phone which is on the same plan and to other friends and I get the same thing.  My wife has tried also and has the same thing.  What are we doing wrong?

Hi

Try sending them in an email to see if that might work better.

Through text message/messaging? In the TO spot enter in an email address. switch to abc mode to use letters

All I have is a phone number for the phone I want to send it to......I don't follow.  I have tried to send a picture to my wife's phone from my phone.  It will not send it......I have tried to send it to other peoples phones too and it will not send.  These same phones are sending pics to me...some have sound.  I do not have emails for these people and the people sending them to me are not using emails either.....just my phone number.....I have asked them.

So you can receive animated stuff just not send.  If you have a full data block you can't send or recieve picture messages but since that's not the case couldn't be that but call and ask them if something is blocked from you sending out is all I can think of.  Mary

Don't use that site but wondering what does that site have to do with not being able to send text with animations from his phone?  Mary
