How to attach a picture in a text message, NOT EMAIL!

I purchased two iphones a few weeks ago. I have been using mine, the other is my partner's. There is one problem I can not figure out. I have been trying to google the problem and it tells me how to do it via email, but not text message, anyway, this is the problem: I know how to email a picture, but how do you send a file via text message. My last phone was a pocket pc and I was able to do this. The Iphone is suppose to be one of the most advanced phones; therefore, I assume it has this feature. I can not find an attach button anywhere to send a picture in a text message, like MMS or something. If anyone has any information, email me at [email protected]
If anyone knows apple support info, please give it to me. thank you.

Kennyz79,
SMS is just that, text only. MMS, which the iPhone does not support, is a stripped down version of email and supports images.
However, you have email on the iPhone, and can email to most carrier's phones who use MMS.
If you would like to see MMS, you could submit feedback at this link:

Hope this helps,

When you are viewing the test message with the picture in it, press and hold on the picture itself and it should vibrate and pull up a menu with the options of "View Picture", "Save Picture", and "Share Picture". Choose which one you want.

Creating Groups for Mass Text Messages and emails

I have been searching but haven't been able to find out how to create groups to send bulk text messages or emails from my iphone. Can anybody help?

Hi,
I am new to this board and I've had the iphone only for a few days, but today, on thanksgiving, I wanted to wish about 50 of my closest friends and family a very happy thanksgiving I noticed the same thing and came here to find a resolution.
Next upgrade this is something Apple really needs to take care of.
Preferably _before Christmas_, otherwise I'm going to have to write those 50 friends, plus texts for random people I just want to keep in touch with.
Don't even want to think about it.
Of course I still have the option to use my good old Sony Ericsson W800 I gave my mother, but what does this tell us about Apple????
Thank you,
Teisha

Since the software update my photo from LinkedIn now is attached to all of my text messages and I DO NOT WANT THAT. How do I remove my photo from my test messages?

Anyone know how to remove your own picture that is now attached to all text messages? Since the software update (assume KitKat) my LinkedIn photo is now attached to all my text messages and I never set that up, nor can I figure out how to remove it!
How do I remove my photo from my text messages? Android RazrM.
Help! It is driving me crazy. Thank you.

Thanks, but this information was not useful. First it was outdated (2012 and the software is 2013/2104) in the Settings/Apps/All section there was no "Text Messaging" icon. Under "Phone/Messaging" the clear cache was not possible, it was not available, an active option.
VERIZON/GOOGLE - I am still hoping to learn how to remove my photo from my text messages - why is this so difficult? Why is something like this added without my permission or at my request? May be a reason to jump ship to iOS.

How can I disable e-mail and text messages when I'm close to or over my data quota ?

How can I disable e-mail and text messages when I'm close to or over my data quota ?
Is this possible? I don't see any options?
All I see is this:
Receive confirmations of many account transactions via Email and/or free Text Alerts delivered right to your cell phone. You can receive these confirmations for
   transactions done online, over the phone or from your handset. Account management Text Alerts do not count against any Messaging allowances.
      Your bill is ready for review.
     Payment Confirmations: Your payment has been received    Your credit/adjustment     has been applied.1
     Account Activity Confirmations     Plan changes     Feature changes1

What phone?
You would need to disable data on the phone itself. You wouldn't do it online on your account.
Note also that text messages do not count toward your data allowance.
