Sending Pics To Picasa 3 From An Email
2 Answers
I have been sent a lot of pics as attachments in an email and would like to send a few of them to a friend. I have tried and tried to do this but cannot fathom it out. I use windows live mail and yahoo and have tried both. Picasa shows up but when I click on it it says 'invalid image'. I use Firefox too and windows 7, is there an easy way to do this please? I thought if I could get them onto Picasa I could then sort them out and use the best of them hopefully. -rosy

Pictures aren't 'in' or 'onto' Picasa. They are simply on your hard drive and Picasa is the program you use to access them. So you don't need to involve Picasa at all to send the pics by email.

Now create a new email to the friend that you'd like to see them. Windows Live Mail has an 'Add Photos' button but I suggest that you don't use it. (It automatically shrinks the file sizes of large images which isn't really necessary with modern broadband download speeds and renders them useless for printing out). Instead, click on 'Attach'. Navigate to the location of the folder where you've saved the pictures to. Hold down the Ctrl button while clicking on each of those that you want to forward. When you've completed your selection, click 'Open' (or possibly 'Attach' or something similar). Then send your email as normal.
