Postcard Messages
Your phone’s camera lets you quickly send photos overlaid with
handwritten messages as postcards attached to Picture
messages, rather than using the keypad to enter your message.
You can also include a sound file and keypad-entered text.

key), then
My Images

appears in the display.

handwritten Postcard message.
To take a new picture instead, press Camera ( ). The
camera viewfinder screen appears in the display. (For
more information, refer to “Taking Pictures” on page 59.)

handwritten message appears within the image corners.

paper (that is, no lines).

(“zoom in on”) the message, as needed.
