I'm using win XP pro SP2
When I open a folder of pictures and select a few to email, Windows
used to offer me the option to resize them for me before emailing but
no longer does. Why is this option dialogue box no longer appearing?
Was I supposed to pay a bloody subscription fee or something for it?
===========================
Win XP huh? I guess you know you
posted this in a Vista newsgroup?
Anyway...no, there is no fee...
Try this, maybe it will restore the option:
Go to...Start / Run and type
(or copy/paste):
"REGSVR32 SHIMGVW.DLL"
(without the quotes)(Yes, there's
a space between 2 and S)
Click...OK.
A dialog box should report the following:
"DllRegisterServer in SHIMGVW.DLL succeeded"
Also...
There is a free PowerToy called
ImageResizer...(Not For Vista)...you can
download it at the following link:

or...
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/powertoys/xppowertoys.mspx
After it's installed, 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.
