Photos in outlook in XP

[debbiew]

Hi, this is for my mum. When she gets photos sent to her via e mail, they come up as really large photos and take ages to come through. They are appearing at the bottom of her e mail. It seems as though her computer does not deal with photos well. When we tried to load an ordinary photo to e bay, it gave up inthe end because it seemed to take so long. Anyone any ideas? Debbie W

You can easily use photo editing software....But if you dont have that just open the Pic in paint click image then stretck and skew....Slowly reduce thost figures from 100% but ensure you alter both boxes the same of you may end up looking like ET.

 

BMP images are quality, but for emails and ebay just save as JPG if you don't intend printing as these are about a sixth the size (in MB's not physical) and will look just as good on screen.

It's probably slow because she's on a dial up connection. There's no real way of speeding up attachments on emails without upgrading to broadband.
