texting a GIF image.

[goneeuro]

is there a way to send a gif image through mms. i copied and pasted a gif and is showed it playing in the input field but it failed to send right away. my friends and i send stupid gif and audio images to each other all the time. now that mms is here is there a way to do this.

I just tried doing this by sending one I found online to myself. It worked for me to an extent. In the text conversation, both GIFs were moving like they supposed to. However, when I tap it, it is enlarged, but is not animated.

i wonder why mine fails as soon as i hit send. i tried sending it to my friend on verizon and to my girlfriends 3g.

Wait 4 more days.

Sending a .gif wasn't working for me either. Then I turned airplane mode on and off and now it works.

Maybe .gif images are no yet supported? I mean in 3 days it'll be known.

MMS is officially supported here, and like I said, it started working after I turned Airplane mode on and off.

MMS works for me, but I haven't tried a .gif yet. If someone posts it'll I'll gladly test it on my iPhone.

I saved the image from this on my iPhone and then sent is as an MMS from "Photos".

Mine works and it moves. I just copied it from here, didn't save it, and pasted it into an mms.

You can turn it off in your Messages settings.

so the panda worked for me but the gif i was trying doesnt. maybe there is a size cap. i didnt thing there would be cause i sent a pretty large video and that went fine.

the gif i am trying to send is a .png file and it is 24 frames and its 683kb.

Maybe it only works for .gif

Well, I posted it as a .gif. I just saved it again to my computer from here and it's still a .gif

 

[goneeuro]

for some reason it changed to png when i downloaded it. i just converted mine to a gif and it still didnt work. oh well if some one wants to see if they can get it to work pm me your email and i will send it to you. not sure if it is mac forums safe to post up.
