Thanks for picture advice

[Paul McCloud]

If you right-click on the photo file ( W indows), you'll get a list of options.  One of them is "send to".   If you left click on that, you'll get another list of options.  Click on "mail recipient".  A box will pop up which says "do you want to make your pictures smaller".    If you then click ok, (whichever option you check) a new email screen will appear with the file attached.  Leave the "make my pictures smaller" box checked.  
If you're in the windows file viewer, the left pane will also show an option to email the file.  Highlight the file, and that option will appear on the left pane.  Without highlighting the file, the email option won't appear there.  You'll get the same resizing box if you click on "email this file", same as above.
I use Earthlink's email reader TotalAccess.  If I use the "Attach" button, I don't get the resizing option.  Only if I go directly to the file itself, and do the above procedure, do I get the automatic resizing option.  
I hope this helps.

Hi Will,
 
The thing that will reduce the file size of picture is mainly picture size. I suggest you use your camera's normally (do not use the lower resolution settings of the camera). Then, using a photoshop or picture software, reduce the picture size to about 400X600 pixels. Then, when you save it as jpeg, you can use compression level of about 5 and you will end up with a file of about 35 to 55 kb.
 
Hope this helps,

Thanks to everybody who has shared their insights on how to get my pictures on the forum.  I’ll try again this evening.
