==================================
I guess you're running WinXP or you wouldn't
be here...right?

OK, go to the following link and download and
install: ImageResizer.exe

http://tinyurl.com/36n

Then you can open any folder that contains
images and you will have an option to resize.
Just right click the selected image files and
choose Resize Pictures. You can select one
image or a whole group.

The program will place the resized copies in
the folder with your originals.

BTW...when resizing if you go to...Advanced
Button / Custom...and enter 640 in each field...
that will be a good size for e-mail purposes.

I'm having the same problem on one of my XPro computers
using Outlook Express. The option to reduce just doesn't
come up and email pictures go out full size. It works on
other computers so there must be a solution for both of
us. Heres hoping for help.

To restore the automatic "Do you want to resize..." for Outlook Express, do
the following:
Click on Start, click on Run and type the following in the textbox:
REGSVR32 SHIMGVW.DLL
and press Enter
Note that there is a space between ...32 and SHI...

This is different than the solution that John Inzer gave.
The above will restore the automatic function.
The solution from John Inzer will make a new file (resized file) in your
folder and you can then e-mail it.
Both are good to have.
