I can send messages fine, but I've been trying to send a picture I took and keeps getting rejected. Any ideas?

It sends fine as a regular text message.

It seems slow but it does send eventually.

hmmm. I've tried twice to send pics to my wife and they didn't go though. Got the little red exclamation point. I'm currently on 3g.
 
Maybe there is a file size limit for iMessage? Try sending a regular photo, and a really small one and see if either work.

This has been my experience as well. i have also seen regular text over iMessage display a not delivered " ! " yet had the person respond to that message.
 
Mine too is slow at times other times its fast! But alot lately i will send picture and the other person never gets it or gets it like 15 minutes later, also I just resend it a few times and eventually they get it. Reg text seems more reliable, but Imessage is fine
 
No issue here. In my area iMessage seems to send pictures just as fast as regular mms.
