Please disregard the weird noises in the background, as they are a mixture of Fairly Oddparents, and my grandma on the phone.





 
It's difficult to tell from the pictures, but the females should have a rounded anal fin (around the area where poo comes out, lol), where the males have a long, sword-shaped fin...it's not hard to tell the difference, once you've seen the two. Also, females tend to be rounder. Here's a good article on it: Sexing Mollies
 
I know pictures are difficult, it's difficult to take them too :p
Those are videos, click to play! :D
 
campbellmay is right, and don't worry, it's easy to spot the either rounded or pointed anal fin. what i'm concerned about is the lone tetra swimming all by itself. you should at least add 2-3, but 4 and more would be ALOT better. looks like you do have some room in your tank to add them, unless your mollies breed, of course!
 
Whoops, couldn't tell they were videos.

I see this:

1 black male
1 black female
1 white female
1 orange female

I agree, from the clips it looks like that black one is your only male...of course, I can't be absolutely sure, but his was the only gonopodium I spotted. :)
 
Knowing mollies i'm sure you'll be able to see which one is humping which very soon!! :lol: Fan shaped anal fin for females and pointy anal fin for males
