That picture doesn't show how to add group recipients to SMS. What are the icons in the message field?

I don't have that option in my message settings for SMS or MMS.
open messages app-->menu[3 dots]-->settings-->Group messaging is checked
MultiMedia Messages(MMS) mentioned my that poster is just a header
Oh sorry. The icons are emoji. Enable them in the language and input settings.

No problem. I don't know what emoji are anyway, but I still don't see from your pic how it shows how to send sms to groups without adding recipients individually, or am I missing something?
also, under the settings menue in messages there is a section under "MULTIMEDIA (MMS) Messages" - Group Messaging" - "Use MMS to send a single message to multiple recipients". Make sure that is unchecked and that might help make it so that it doesn't send it as a mms.
No idea. I should have read the whole thread first. My bad

No problem. Btw, how do you post a pic of your phone's screen like you did in your first post? And I know what emoji are now too, thanks to google
Power button and volume down at the same time. Well actually..press power button a split second before volume down.

The OP wants to mass text group not group SMS where everyone talks to everyone I think.

Ok thanks. Here's the screenshot of my message settings. There's no Group options under MMS or SMS.

There is group messaging in the default stock firmware. I noticed that the OP had no mobile data connection (grey signal bars) which could be a reason why that option for Group Messaging is not available as an option since that feature requires MMS (for iPhone compatibility -- thank god). What the OP is looking for isn't possible with the stock messaging app right now... hopefully that'll change but not anytime soon.
And all that is assuming the OP is on factory Nexus 4 firmware.
I'm guessing DarthEagle is running stock while the they person who has group messaging is running a custom app like CyanogenMod SMS (see my screen shot I am running CM10.1)
