You have a photo on your computer that you want to send to someone. You want them to receive it immediately. Your best option is to send it to their cell phone.

Here are some of the choices that you have for doing that:

• Email the photo to their email account. Many people today are using smartphones that allow them to access their email from the mobile web. These people can accept your email photo on their phones. They could also see the photo if you posted it to your social networking sites and let them know that it was there to be seen on the mobile web.
• Send it to your phone and then send an MMS message from your phone. You can send pictures directly from one phone to another using MMS messaging.
• Use an SMS gateway to send the picture. SMS gateways are offered by some SMS providers to allow people to send email from a computer to a phone. The message is sent like a normal email message from a mobile aggregator with the recipient being the phone. The message is converted to an MMS picture message by the gateway.

Those are the most common ways to send photos to someone else’s cell phone from your computer.
