When someone texts me a picture it comes up as a video/picture text and the pic is only about 1 1/2 inches and I can't figure out how to enlarge it.

I had this problem once. I think I fixed it by choosing a different display method. (different app to view the image)

I can't recall which one always displayed the image really small, but choose the other one.

My only complaint about the GS3 is how it handles texts. It insists on making them a video and enlarging the pic is a complete pain in the arse. Saving the pic is also a pain. On my LG G2x I used to be able to long press the pic and save it, but the option no longer comes up.

Any thoughts on a better text app would be appreciated.
