In the MMS app.
Tap & hold the picture in your message stream. There should be a pop-up menu of options. The second option is to save the attachment.

Long press the picture. It will bring up options. I hear ya on the saving naked pics. Lol. Saved quite a few myself.

installing Astro is also very helpful for saving stuff.
and you have to say nekkid, butt nekkid!

I gather the fabulous XDA forum supports posting pictures ;-)

Any photo hiding apps out there??

Or something to lock the current photo app?
Thanks.
I just saw two in the market...sexting vault was one I think. Can't remember the other.
PhotoVault works good. You can hide individual pics, they wont show up in your stock gallery. Have to sign in w/ a password in the app to see the blocked pics....
I recommend photovault "sextingvault" just sounds suspicious. Its the same app. But better name.

The Easy way to hide photos is to mount the sdcard to your computer or use Astro or EStrongs File Explorer and just move all the photos you want hidden to another folder on the sdcard and name the folder .Whatever
Just put a Period . in front of the folder name and the Gallery app will not look for photo's in that folder so it hides them.
All you have to do is navigate to the folder with Astro etc and then view the photos from there.
This is how i hide photo's as most people are not going to go using a file explorer to go find photo's

The absolute easiest and probably best gallery app available is quickpic. It has just what you are looking for.
You can also make any folder hidden by adding * before the folder name.

Audio Manager (Hide it pro). Its awesome! It hides pictures, apps, music, and it even locks any apps you want. Best part, is that the app disguises itself as a volume controller app. Check it out.

::sigh:: actually my GF's junk.
This is the way Android camera was designed, to give you a quick jump between camera and gallery. If you don't like it - there are plenty of replacement camera apps on the market, check them out.
You could move the pics and vids to another folder, and disable the folder in the gallery app (push menu button in gallery).
Or read this for more tips: http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/hide-private-picture-folders-gallery-android/
your just using the wrong app -
Search for "audio manager" - it is a blue music sign with a orange one on the back,
go into this and you realise it is called hide it pro - download it,
simple to use and works perfectly

pretty sure those will show up elsewhere like in the gallery unless you hide the folder - put a period in the beggining of the name - example .xxxpics

Or put a file called .nomedia in the folder, it won't be scanned for media files by any apps.

I seriously doubt that, I have had 3 other Android devices and this is my first Sense Android and the first that does that thumbnail thing

He is quite correct, the stock Android camera-app does feature the small thumbnail picture for quick gallery access. I see it on my Nexus One right now.

Sending pictures to facebook

Can anyone tell me how to upload a picture straight after taking it to facebook from the camera!? I can do it from the gallery but not from the camera? This seems pretty poor considering they are selling this phone as a facebook phone!
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
Well that should be simple:
1. Press the FB button
2. Select the camera button on the right side of the screen
3. Take your picture
4. select upload

Bert

[Q] picture options

is it possible to change the pictuer options in a text message so i dont have the annoying slide show? i would like to flip or swipe through them
And better yet a button to add photos from messaging rather then having to goto photos first

when i get a text message that has a few pictures in it. i don't want to have to wait for each picture in the slideshow, i would rather have the option to flip through them at will

Why does an MMS picture always show up as a slideshow?

When somebody sends me a (one) picture by MMS it always shows up as a slideshow and I have to press play to see it. It's really annoying because you can't zoom on the pic, you have to save it then click on it.
This didn't use to happen with my Xperia X10. Is this a setting on our phones?
exists with the whole galaxy line. the way around is to use another app for your sms needs.
They all do that. Unless there is a specific app u had in mind.
