Why can't I send a picture message?

Nokia 5800. I can receive pictures ok but I can't seem to send one. I've changed the picture size in the camera settings to small and the multimedia message setting size to large but I'm still having no luck.

It's a PAYG 'text and web' 02 sim card.

    I assumed it was since I can receive ok and I have text messages from 02 with the settings.

    If I cant find out myself how to sort this I'll obviously have to contact them as a next step.

    I've had this problem before, when I hadn't been set up to recieve MMS, although I could recieve normal text messages. It is worth checking with your provider, just in case; as that had been the problem with mine, through no reason I could discearn.
