Check in Settings in the SMS (text) app for something like "automatically download MMS". Turn that on if you want the picture to download automatically.

And you might want to check Mint mobile - $15/month if you're willing to pay by the year, for 2GB/month. (If TMO covers where you need signal.) Twice the download and half the price. (AT&T is $30/month if you autopay, which is pretty much what you're doing with Mint.) Since you're on prepay, there's no cost in leaving. (Mint sends you a SIM to try it out first. If you don't get signal where you need signal, just say "no thanks" and stay with AT&T. (3 months for the first payment if you decide to stay with them, then pay for a year 3 months later.)
