Clipart Question

Is there a way to get Windows Mail to suggest Clipart when Insert/Picture is
is clicked?

The file type has to be compatible with HTML. So you can convert any
clipart to jpg or gif format and then you can insert it.

Thanks Steve. While composing in Outlook and you click Insert/Pictures and
clipart is a choice. I am wondering why it is not in Windows Mail and how
can it be made possible. According to Gary VanderMolen [above] it is not
possible.

If someone knows a way or a workaround I would appreciate it.

I didn't say 'not possible', I just meant that particular feature
is not built in to Windows Mail.
The workaround would be something like this:
Create a Clipart folder under C:\Users\username\Pictures\.
Populate it with free clipart images (widely available for download).
Then, when composing an email in Windows Mail, click Insert, Picture,
and navigate to that Clipart folder.

Office uses a special format for its clipart that is not recognized via HTML
and OE uses HTML to display its images, so OE cannot use the clipart from
Office in its current form, which is why I suggested converting it to jpg or
gif.

The issue regarding the cliparts being not getting incorporated in your E-mail.


As this is a by-design issue, there would be nothing much we can do from our end to make the clip art to get incorporated in the E-mail
