I always was able to send my pictures from "My Pictures" to my email message to be sent out, by double clicking on "Attachments" which would take me to "My Pictures" where I'd choose the ones I wanted by double clicking each one. Those pictures would land, correctly, on my message and I'd send it out.

This time, though I did exactly the same, instead of doing the correct thing as I explained above, it takes me to the "Photo Gallery" which is nice to view, but where I can’t send out the pix. I don’t understand why this time it does this. No error message.

Please someone could tell me how to copy my photos to my email message as I did before? Thanks ever so much for any ideas!

Hi,
Which email service are you using ?
Most people would use the paperclip icon in the email account and send as attachment.
Cheers.

Hello and thank you ThrashZone. I use Windows Live Mail and I do click on the paper clip icon, but this time it doesn't work for me for some strange reason. I've been doing it this way for years and this is the first time I can't do it anymore.

I thought I'd use dragging and it seemed to work, , but

I thought I'd use dragging and it seemed to work, HOWEVER, when I opened them to make sure they were okay...it seems that I had dragged the folder with ALL the other pics I had in there! So, not only I didn't want to show them the additional pics, but I'm afraid my recipients' computers may be harmed because of the large MBs....

Thanks again for any opinion!
