What happens when you try? Do the pictures show in Sent Items? Are you using
HTML? Tools | Options | Send | HTML Settings. Make sure Send pictures with messages is checked. -- Bruce Hagen MS MVP - Outlook Express ~IB-CA~ "Kira" wrote in message ...

the same in my Sent Items folder I am using HTML and send pictures with messages is checked. Thanks for responding. "Bruce Hagen" wrote: What happens when you try? Do the pictures show in Sent Items?

That should have fixed it, but.....................
You may have a damaged identity. File | Identity | Add New Identity. Create a new one and test it. If all is well, you can import your messages from the old identity and delete it. -- Bruce Hagen MS MVP - Outlook Express ~IB-CA~ "Kira" wrote in message ...

Check the size of the message in the sent items folder and see if its the
correct size to include the image. You can also do a CTRL-F3 on the message and see if the source code shows the image is contained there or not. Also try Message | Forward as attachment and see if that includes the image then. Some email programs may not follow proper internet rules, so try sending a message to yourself and include an image and make sure that works and then try forwarding it to yourself and see if that works. steve "Kira" wrote in message ...

Bruce Hagen,
I know absolutely nothing about identies, but I did try to do what you suggested. If I did it correctly, then it did not work. Any other suggestions?

Steve,
I do not know anything about sizes. I did check my Sent folder, but found nothing to indicate a size. I went to CTRL-F3, but I don't know how to tell if it shows whether or not the image is there. I could not actually see it - where it should have been there was a long line of "=20". When I forwarded the image as an attachment, it did include it. I am unable to send myself a message with an image brecause I cannot get the image to copy & paste into the message. I get the same box with the red "X" in it. Am I just not computer literate enough for you to help me? I know I am very limited.

You can't copy/paste a picture. You *WILL* get a red X that way. You have to
either Insert | Picture and Browse to the folder it's in to insert it, or Insert | File Attachment and Browse to the folder with the picture.

Thank you, but now I have another problem: I do not know how to access my

Alt + Enter will bring up the Properties of a message.
Size is part of the information shown.

One method to use would be to right click on the picture in the original e-mail and then "save picture as" to 'my pictures'. When y'all want to send the picture via another e-mail, attach the picture using the location in 'my pictures'. |

Try very simple. Copy a picture from wherever on your computer to your
desktop. Then compose a new HTML message. Then click in the message window and go to Insert | Picture and browse to your desktop where the picture is that you saved. Then send the message to yourself and see if you get the message with the image. As Bruce indicated, if you want to send images from another email, then you first have to save those images to the hard disk and then you can insert them into the email. Back to the other point, if you go to View | Columns, then you can add the size of the message, so you can see that in the OE message list window. cheers, steve "Kira" wrote in message ...

The picture source (path) is the location of the picture.

Forwarding Pictures
For forwarding messages with pictures, use Message | Forward as attachment.
It doesn't work sometimes due to incompatibilities between OE and other messaging programs. For the insert | Picture, see the OE Help file | Index and pictures, inserting. I would also suggest you get some basic computer training so you understand more what you are doing on the computer. steve "Kira" wrote in message ... When I click Insert l Picture, a window called "Picture" opens with questions I cannot answer. What is a path? Is that a URL? What is alternate text? It also wants layout & spacing. When I clicked Browse, the picture I had put on the Desktop did not come up. Only a very small perecentage of the items on the Desktop were available to choose from. This is all quite confusing to me. Also, as Bruce indicated, if I want to send images from another e-mail, then I first have to save those images to the hard disk and then insert them back into the e-mail. I have always been able to just forward e-mail and the images would be forwarded along with it. What happened to this system & why did it change? "Steve Cochran" wrote: Try very simple. Copy a picture from wherever on your computer to your desktop. Then compose a new HTML message. Then click in the message window and go to Insert | Picture and browse to your desktop where the picture is that you saved. Then send the message to yourself and see if you get the message with the image. As Bruce indicated, if you want to send images from another email, then you first have to save those images to the hard disk and then you can insert them into the email. Back to the other point, if you go to View | Columns, then you can add the size of the message, so you can see that in the OE message list window. cheers, steve "Kira" wrote in message ... Thank you, but now I have another problem: I do not know how to access my pictures that are located in a saved e-mail. And, the pictures I have in My Documents I cannot access because when I Insert l Picture, I do not get a full listking of my documents to choose from. When I try to get a picture from My Pictures, I only end up with a bunch of small boxes. And finally, I don't need Insert l File Attachment because I know that the image will work there. Are you ready to give up on me yet? Thanx --Kira "Bruce Hagen" wrote: You can't copy/paste a picture. You *WILL* get a red X that way. You have to either Insert | Picture and Browse to the folder it's in to insert it, or Insert | File Attachment and Browse to the folder with the picture. Do it that way and see if it's in Sent Items when you send it to yourself. -- Bruce Hagen MS MVP - Outlook Express ~IB-CA~ "Kira" wrote in message ... Steve, I do not know anything about sizes. I did check my Sent folder, but found nothing to indicate a size. I went to CTRL-F3, but I don't know how to tell if it shows whether or not the image is there. I could not actually see it - where it should have been there was a long line of "=20". When I forwarded the image as an attachment, it did include it. I am unable to send myself a message with an image brecause I cannot get the image to copy & paste into the message. I get the same box with the red "X" in it. Am I just not computer literate enough for you to help me? I know I am very limited. Thanks Steve, --Kira "Steve Cochran" wrote: Check the size of the message in the sent items folder and see if its the correct size to include the image. You can also do a CTRL-F3 on the message and see if the source code shows the image is contained there or not. Also try Message | Forward as attachment and see if that includes the image then. Some email programs may not follow proper internet rules, so try sending a message to yourself and include an image and make sure that works and then try forwarding it to yourself and see if that works. steve "Kira" wrote in message ...
