It's a snap to send pics from your PC to a cell if you follow these tips.

Step 1: Know the carrier
Know the cellphone carrier the recipient is using.

Step 2: Learn popular extensions
Learn the MMS extensions of the popular carriers by searching for them on the companies' websites. The e-mail address of the cell phone is the 10-digit cellphone number followed by the at sign, and then the carrier's MMS extension.

Step 3: Open e-mail
Open your e-mail program and create a new message. Insert the picture you would like to send along with your message.

Tip
Make sure the picture does not exceed 480 by 640 pixels.

Step 4: Enter the e-mail
Enter the cellphone's e-mail address, which is the 10-digit cellphone number followed by the carrier's MMS extension.

Step 5: Know text charges
Know that these messages are free for you to send but will come through to the recipient as MMS messages, so text-messaging charges will apply.
