Hi.
I've always sent photos by right clicking, on a photo, in the context menu,
I selected "Send To", then "Mail Recipient"
A box pops up asking me if I want to re-size the photo.
I select "make My Pictures Smaller"
It would then take me to email program, all I had to do do is select a
recipient, and send the mail w/ pics.
Now when I right click on a photo, "Send To", "Mail Recipient" I no longer
get the pop-up window for re-sizing it takes me directly to email for sending.
It still sends ok, but the photos are huge.
Please help. I really miss this feature.
Thanks.

He obviously has a spelling problem so his registry edits will be
suspect from day one.
