Individual Attachments - This will resize the photos and attach each one as an individual file. If you selected any files that were not already JPEGs you also have the option to convert them to JPEG. I would advise checking this option since some recipients may not have a viewer for other file types. In the Size and Quality section you can choose the size Elements will make your photos. Smaller will result in faster downloads but recipients will not get as much detail in the file. I recommend using small or medium unless you know your recipients have a high-speed connection. The customize button just takes you to the
E-mail Preferences which we discussed in a previous lesson. Elements shows you an estimate of the file size and approximate download time for the e-mail using your settings. If the size if very big (over 1 MB) and you'll be sending to people on dial-up, you may need to go back and reduce the size of your photos.
The individual attachment option isn't quite as fun as the other two, but it offers the most trouble-free way of sending photos, since all e-mail clients can handle attachments, and every computer is able to view JPEG files.
