I can't email my photos. I've tried using "Send Photos" or "Attachment"
on the toolbar and it looks like they've been mailed off but they are not
received on the other end. I've investigated this and it seems they can't be
sent because my "MSN Photo Server is Unavailable". I can send other
attachments but not photos. I don't even know what a "photoserver" is or how
to get one.

I don't know about MSN photoserver.
It may be that your photo file size are too large. Try reducing them and
then e-mail one to yourself and see if this works.
Image Resizing



To decrease the size of the file for e-mail, web publishing, etc.



Go to this site and download the free Image Resizer. Exe file in one of your
folder.

http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/p.../powertoys.asp

Once in your folder, double click on it to install it.

Once installed, you right click on a photo file (or on a group of selected
photo files).

Click on Resize image on the opening menu.

A window will open, select the size you want.

New files will be added in your folder, same name as original file but with
the word (small) or (custom) added.



The first time you use it, you may not see Resize image on the opening menu
after you right click on a photo file or if you see it and click on it, it
may not work. If so, do the following:

Click on Run, click on Start and type the following in the textbox:

REGSVR32 SHIMGVW.DLL

and press the Enter key.

Note that there is a space between ...32 and SHI.

You should get a "success" message after pressing the Enter key.



Also, you can download a free photo editing software from here to resize
pictures and edit photos:

http://irfanview.com/

or another free software:

www.faststone.org

From this last one, you can directly e-mail a picture and it will
automatically resize it.

Another free one to do the same is:

www.picasa.com



Picasa has a nice feature to exchange pictures with friends under "Hello"
