Hello there, UrbanBubba.


In all the information in the article you were referred to us from, you may have overlooked the answer to your question:


iOS: Using Messages

http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3529


Under the iMessage section:

Notes:

On iPhone, if iMessage is unavailable, the message may be sent as SMS or MMS, depending on content. Carrier messaging rates may apply. You can adjust this behavior in iPhone at Settings > Messages > Send As SMS. Messages sent using iMessage appear in a light blue bubble, while messages sent using SMS or MMS appear in a green bubble.


Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.


Cheers,
