How do I send a picture to my phone?

[Eli]

I thought I could just email it to my number @tmobile.com, but that didn't work.

is your phone mms capable?

if it is, and you've never used mms, sometime you have to send yourself an mms (photo) to get tmobiles system to recognize it (this worked on a prepaid tmo motorola phone I had)

Samsung X495

Just sent one from my phone to my number. It worked, sorta. It gave me a text message with a URL to view the picture that I sent.
