What is the error you are getting when you try to send a picture?

Are you able to send a plain message to the account in question?
Is the phone your trying to send a picture on the Verizon Network or a different phone network?

Yes I can send regular text, its on Verizon. Does it matter if I'm on Wi-Fi
or not?

It might. Try sending the same picture to the same phone number through the Verizon Network. It should say something about the picture being too big and need to resize it before sending. I am not sure if that resizing is happening while on WiFi or not.

Tried sending without wifi no luck. Could it be a 3g problem?

I am not sure at this point. You might want to call Verizon Customer Service and see if there is something going on with either your account, or the other persons account.

Hello bigdaddydave,
I know it must be aggravating not being able to send MMS (picture) messages. I would like to assist you with resolving the issue.
First, thanks to curtterp for the great feedback & suggestions.
If you're still unable to send MMS messages, please reach out to me directly so I can further investigate.
Thanks,

fast29,
Congratulations on your new Galaxy SIII.
I also had the same issue and have contacted Samsung to advised them of the issue. I downloaded a 3rd party camera app thru Play Store, (Vignette Demo), and I was able to use/ send/ attach via MMS so you should be able to do the same in the interim.

Any luck finding a full solution to this issue? larry27's answer helped me—somewhat—but I still can't receive MMS, and my MMS messages don't get through to my wife, even though they appear to have been sent (the "sending" text changes to a time stamp).
Thanks!

I am having the same issue...can you suggest ways to fix it. I have been to the Verizon store and they did not fix the issue for me. Verizon Support asked me to turn off WiFi and then reset the phone. That did not work either. I have pics that have been "sending" for over 24 hours.

I had the same problem and fixed it by going into:
settings, wireless & networks "more", mobile networks, then you need to "enable" data access over Mobile networks
It will then have a check mark on "data enabled"
After I did that I immediately was able to send and receive MMS.

This seems to have helped me, as I was having the same problem with my new Galaxy Nexus (on 4.1.1 Jelly Bean). It fixed the "eternal sending" message and my pictures appeared to go through, but my wife never received them on her iPhone 5 (also on Verizon, running iOS 6.0.1). She also can't send MMS messages to me. I checked her iPhone's settings for something similar to your suggestion, but other than turning 4G on all the time, I don't find anything like that. She is able to send MMS to and receive them from other friends.
Any thoughts? I can now and always have been able to send and receive SMS (text) messages with no problems.
Thanks!
