Outlook Express Email Tips The best part about sending e-mail is that you
can send your favorite picture along with it. Gone are the good old days of
having to get your photos developed so you can share them. Now all you have to
do is attach it to an email and send.
An e-mail attachment is a file you include with
an e-mail. For example, you can attach a text document, a small file, or a
picture to share with someone.
To insert a picture you should know where the
file is located on your computer. Most people store their pictures in the My
picture folder which is located in My Documents. You must also consider the size
of the file before you send it. A large picture can take along time to download
and the person you are sending it to may not happy about that. For example
pictures taken from a 7 mega pixel digital camera can be huge and must be
resized. Sometimes your email program will ask you if you would like to make
your picture smaller to send.
