RIGHT CLICK on the image icon and choose Send To/Mail Recipient from the pop up menus. Windows XP will ask if you want to send a smaller image and give you the choice of what size image to send.

Pick a new size that’s no greater than 640×480 pixels to be safe. Once you’ve chosen that, it will launch an Outlook/Outlook Express e-mail window with a reduced-size image already attached.

Note that the reduced image will look good on your or your recipient’s screen, but it doesn’t have enough resolution for high quality print. For that, you will need to send both versions of the photo or sign up with an online photo sharing sites such as Facebook, MySpace or Webshots. On these sites you can post high-resolution versions of your pictures online for those who want to print them. They can also browse through the screen-friendly albums without any further hassle on your part or theirs..
