I have scanned pictures from my scannner to My Pictures.
When I try to send them via e-mail, I get a message that
they take up too much space. How to I make them smaller,
so I can send them to friends. Thanks

Click to expand...
=============================================
First, if these files are not .jpg...make a .jpg
copy.

If you right click an image file and choose...
Send To / Mail Recipient...you should get a
dialog box that asks you to resize the image.
If you do not see this box...

Try this:

go to...Start / Run and type:

"REGSVR32 SHIMGVW.DLL"
(without the quotes)(Yes, there's
a space between 2 and S)

Click...OK.

Now try again...


Also.....

You can go to the following link and download
and install: ImageResizer.exe

http://tinyurl.com/36n

Then you can open any folder that contains
images and you will have an option to resize.
Just right click the selected image files and
choose Resize Pictures. You can select one
image or a whole group.

The program will place the resized copies in
the folder with your originals.

BTW...when resizing if you go to...Advanced
Button / Custom...and enter 640 in each field...
that will be a good size for e-mail purposes.
