I recently got a new Verizon Samsung Galaxy S3 and am loving it so far.
I have figured out how to save my camera pictures and videos to the micro sd card. I am, however, having a really hard time figuring out how to save my pictures and videos i recieve in messages to my sd card so I don't waste phone memory. I am curious if there is a way to make that happen?

There is no direct setting to make SD a default storage for the phone, but there are few ways to go about it.
For gmail, you could use something like "Gmail Attachment Download" app, which allow to download stuff to folder of your choice.

or "Download All Files"

Personally, I use "Astro File Manager", and I do house cleaning once a while and move the files to prefer ed folders manually, or via file explorer by connecting the phone to my Mac or PC.
