Sending digital photos

[Guest]

In outlook express, I could insert numerous photos in my email. Now with
Windows Mail can onle send two (2). If I try to insert more it will delete
one of the photos already in the email. Anyone else have this problem and is
there a fix for this.

It's not a problem, it's just different.

Are you inserting them with the Insert Picture button?
After you insert a picture, that picture retains focus (it has the little
circles on the corners and sides). When you Insert another one, it replaces
the one with focus.
To avoid this, click in the message body, not on an image, then insert
another picture.

Or, you can use Insert - File attachment
which allows you to select many files at once, but you can't see them in the
message.

Thanks Dave, solved my problem.

I have sent multiple (6 to 8) at a time, no problems. Windows Ultimate 32
bit, using Windows Mail. My biggest problem with doing this sort of thing
has nothing to do with Vista, and caused exactly the same long waits on XP -
I only have a dial-up connection (grins).

Try drag and drop - it works perfectly for me. Whether I add them all at
once, or individually.
