HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Can any of you computer whizz kids out there tell this not so knowledgable computer rookie how to send photos with e-mail.

I have a scanner and Hotmail or Outlook Express available to me

I have succeeded with this task before but for the life of me I can’t remember how I did it.

Please keep it as simple as possible!!!

RE: HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

An other clue which might be helpful in the future.
If you have a bunch of picture to send , use WINZIP.
This software (you can find demo copies on the web) will create an archive of your pictures , crompress them (even if jpeg has a high compression ratio) and instead of having to attach dozen of files , you’ll have only one to handle.

Step 1:
Save the picture you scanned/ripped of the web/got somewhere in a location where you can find it. Not far away in some obscure subsubsubfolder hiddden in Win32, but on your desktop for example.

Step 2:
Open your outlook.

Step 3:
Compose an email.

Step 4:
In the bar above the email you’re composing, you’ll find a paperclip. Click that, and it will ask you which files to attach to the mail you are composing.

Step 5:
Click on the image/file you conveniently placed on your desktop, or try to find that impossibly misplaced image hidden in some obscure folder somewhere in the lower regions of your harddisk.

Step 6:
Send.

In Hotmail, you can somewhere choose to upload a file with your email as well, but i’m not an avid hotmail-user so perhaps someone else can help here.
