mms problem, animated gifs fail

has anyone else noticed that when someone sends you an mms of an animated gif they are frozen and do not work?
i'm pretty sure it's because the phone doesn't work with videos. if you send a picture message, i'm assuming the phone sending/recieving just takes the first frame, not the whole thing. maybe when video support is added to MMS, so will the animated gifs.
yea when i had the g1 it didnt have that capability either (promptly returned it back then went back to winmo), in time wp7 will be able too also im sure

[Q] Can't send message right now. Too many many unsent multimedia messages

The thread title is the error I'm getting. This, from what I can tell, is not the wifi issue.
I'm stock, rooted and I use GoSMS.
I have noticed recently that when I try to send a picture message that is the large clear resolution that is shows up pending for a long time and eventually wont send, probably due to it's large size. To resolve this, I have started doing the smallest resolution, and thus smallest size when I know I'm going to be sending it to someone.
This works to make sure it get sent, if it decides it can. I get the "Can't send message right now. Too many many unsent multimedia messages" To try and fix it I close GoSMS and all other apps, but usually it takes a reboot to get it to go through. There shouldn't be any messages trying to send, as they will usually give an error saying the message couldn't be sent. I don't like to delete messages so I have one thread with 8000+ messages, mix of sms and mms, so going through and deleting all of the sent messages isn't really an option.
I cannot replicate the problem right now to test and see if using the stock messaging app would fix the problem.
Is there some folder or something that stores the pending outgoing messages that I could look at and see the "unsent multimedia messages" are that cause this error?
Is there some other underlying issue, some kind of buffer, relationship between received mms and sending, or anything else like this?
Any help would be appreciated.

[Q] DeskSMS / BrowserTexting

Hello everyone,
Just wondering if anyone else here uses DeskSMS or BrowserTexting. I have a small problem and was wondering if anyone had found a fix for it.
Whenever I send a message longer than 160 characters on either of the remoteSMS websites, the SMS doesn't split and never gets sent. When I text on my phone, my Messaging application automatically splits the texts for me.
If anyone has found a fix, that'd be wonderful!
Thanks, all.
Bump.

[Q] MMS from iPhone users as slideshow, Handcent not a fix

Ive searched hundreds of posts but all the answers are the same. If you are annoyed by getting multi picture or pictures with words from iPhone users coming through as a slideshow or video, the simply install Handcent SMS and the problem magically goes away. We'll I've had Handcent for years and I still have the same problem. I've got it installed and it's set as the default as far as I can tell, I still get slideshows from my iPhone friends when the send multi picture mms messages. Can someone please tell me exactly how to make Handcent show these as single pictures where I can zoom in?
Affects me as well

This is also a problem for me. It's affected all of my Android devices.
It seems that when I receive an MMS from any other user (not just iPhone users) it will be displayed as a slide show instead of an image if the message was sent along with text. This happens even if the attachment is only one image.
It is also triggered if the sender's message has two or more images (even if no text).
I can't begin to describe how annoying this is. From internet searches this has been an issue since at least 2010.
