MMS Picture Size

I thought that MMS pictures were set at a certain dimension, I'm not certain what that is though. Something rediculously small I would imagine like 150x150 or something like that, so all phones would be able to display it.

mms is so prevalent now. i think companys are starting to reg them hard. but usually pic size depends on the sending and recieving phone. but yea ive never seen a mms exceed 300kb..it will automatically downsize before it sends and you wont even know..but this is also why some pictures that are detailed take longer to send than others, bc of this compression. thats my guess at least...i do alot of mms'ing between friends throughout the day and ive noticed these things.

 

I rarely MMS. Only when I'm at the flea market and I see something I think Mom would like. I'll send her a pic and she can say yes or no.

I just took a picture of my cluttered desk with my Treo and sent it to myself. It said the picture will be resized. When the mms arrived it was full screen and the properties were 600x480.

 

I have read on HowardForums that AT&T is starting crack down on unbranded phone customers, and the MMS is one of the first things to be affected. They are being resized from what I can see.

 

the system wont know honestly

 

I don't see why. They have no idea whether the phone is branded or not. They even gave me lots of support getting 3G setup on my Moto A845, which is a phone that Cingular never sold.

I took the picture at 1280x1024. When I sent it, it said it will be resized and I received it.as 640x480.

640x480 is the smallest nine get sized down to irrespective of what the original resolution the picture was taken at.
