I use Microsoft Outlook as my default mail client. and I would like to email
numerous pics at a time from "My Pictures" folder. I select the pictures,
resize them, and send them, but they all go as attachments, which then must
be opened one by one to view. When I used to use Outlook Express as my
default email client, I could send the pictures and theu would actually
appear in the email body, not as attachments. How do I send photos using
Outlook without making them attachments?
 
Using Outlook, I have not seen the option of resizing and having the picture
open in the message. Only as an attachment.
However, you can resize the files you want to e-mail and then when in
Outlook text message window you click on Insert on the top bar, Pictures,
From files, and selected the resized files. They will open in the message
window.

You can resize easily the following way.

Image Resizing



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) or (custom) added.



The first time you use it, you may not see Resize image on the opening menu
after you right click on a photo file or if you see it and click on 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.

You should get a "success" message after pressing the Enter key.
