What happens when you try? Do the pictures show in Sent Items? Are you using
HTML?

A box with a red "X" in the corner appears where the picture should be. It is
the same in my Sent Items folder
I am using HTML and send pictures with messages is checked. Thanks for

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.

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.

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? I sure appreciate your help, --Kira

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

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.

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

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

If there is an attachment to an email, CTRL-F3 will have a lot of numbers

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'.

Forwarding 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.

Forwarding Pictures
 

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?

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.

Forwarding Pictures
 

The picture source (path) is the location of the picture.
A URL is a path to something on the Internet. The something can be a
picture. You can enter a URL to a picture in the picture source box, but
you can't use Browse to enter the URL.
You don't need to put anything in alternate text or layout and spacing.

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?

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.

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

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.

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

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.
