When I try to send pictures I get the option of smaller
file or originaal size, but then when I click ok no email
composer opens...? thank you
 
Try using a programme like Adobe Photoshop and alter the
size of your pic. to whatever you like before sending it
as an attachment.
 
Try opening your mail program first. That's the only way it will work for
me.

You can resize the image first, then insert it as an attachment after you
open your e-mail software.
Not as convenient but will get you out of this jam until the problem is
solved.

A. To decrease the size of the file for e-mail, web publishing etc.



Go to this site and download the free Image Resizer. Exe file in one of your
folder.

http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/pro/downloads/powertoys.asp

Once in your folder, double click on it to install it.

Once installed, you right click on a photo file (or on a group of selected
photo files).

Click on Resize image on the opening menu.

A window will open, select the size you want.

New files will be added in your folder, same name as original file but with
the word (small) added.



The first time you use it, you may not see Resize image on the opening menu
after you right click on the file or if you see it, it may not work. If so,
do the following:

Click on Run, click on Start and type the following in the textbox:

REGSVR32 SHIMGVW.DLL

and press the Enter key.

Note that there is a space between ...32 and SHI.



If you let us know which e-mail composer you use, somebody may be able to
solve why it is not opening directly.
