Hi,
I have a photo I'd like to send to my Mum who doesn't have the net at the moment. She does have a camera phone though, however I don't.
Is it possible to send an MMS photo from the web to a phone? I've tried googling a bit but not much luck.
The receiving phone is a razr on O2 pay-and-go if that makes a difference. I don't mind paying a small charge as long as it's a one-off and not a recurring service.
Thanks for any help

Thanks I had a go with it. It's not an MMS as such. What it does is sends a text message with a WAP link to a web site that displays the picture.
It worked fine to my phone but my Mum claimed not to have received any message. I sent it a couple of times so am surprised. I'm wondering if it's a bit too technical for her and maybe the message is stored somewhere on her phone (Motorola Razr) that she doesn't know how to access.
Does anyone know of a service that can send an actual MMS picture message from the web? She understands those!
Thanks

Have you no data cables that you can put the photo onto your phone and MMS her from your phone?
I have done some more searching and it appears that you would have to setup a SMS/MMS?WAP gateway The link is for a trial one. I haven't used it, but it could be worth a try0 -
No, I don't have a data cable.
I took a look a look at that program but it requires a GPRS modem (effectively a mini phone plugged into the computer). It's not just software.
Thanks for your answer
