How are you sending a picture from your PC as a MMS?

I can't even load a picture (140 KB) - it simply returns to the composer with an empty page.

If you don't get any other reply I suggest you call 777 - and let us know the results too!

I tried loading a picture on Composer but it won't load anything - in my case it won't even go to the next step.

I tried on IE7 and it didn't work. I tried now on Firefox and it loaded the picture ok.

Are you loading something bigger than 300 KB?

Are you using IE or Firefox?

Woa! Retro, This must be the last gasp of the ancient legacy Vizzavi platform. Also I wonder when the old Vodafone mail will get moved off the current onebox v2 it has been since Vizzavi launch?

I also get the two black images in preview but the receiving mobile (mine) did get one out of the two images successfully, the second slide with larger image was black when delivered..
Click website image to view fullsize.

Click to view Fullsize

so 2001, All the top links are dead, the site is a combination of Vizzavi (frame) and the redone Vodafone site (2003), with the later logo plonked on top. (2005) lol.

But Telecom is not better, Check THIS relic out!
And if you are feeling overly nostalgic, Orcons old days

you dont have to have a camera on your phone to receive pxt. Some older handsets support this and maybe some newer.

Regardless... He is using his PC, not the phone, to load a picture. Paradoxsm also had the problem with the picture loading black. I couldn't load on Internet Explorer.

It looks like the PXTWORLD site is having problems.
