Pb when resizing pictures in Mail

When I attach & resize a picture in size either "Small", "Medium" or "Largeé, Mail always create a micro picture (circa 20kb - same size for "Small", "Medium" or "LArge" in the bottom right menu). This happens wherevere the picture is coming from: a file, iPhoto or Aperture.
The only way to attach a proper pictire is to stick to the orginal image size.
Itused to work properly in the past. Don't remember when the pb apeared for the first time (it is not new however).
Any help would be very much appreciated. Otherwise that resize function in Mail is pretty useless)
Thanks

I had this problem in Mail Version 6.5 (1508). I was trying to attach a 2519x2019pixels file that was set a 600dpi.
I resized the file to 998x800 and set the dpi to 72. When I attached the new file Mail was able toresize it as it is supposed to do. My guess is the dpi setting was confusing Mail. Hope this helps. Good luck.

Trouble when sending pictures by mail from iPhoto

Hello. Recently, while sending pictures with the mail function of iPhoto 9, some pictures have been transformed in tiff format (in this case the name of the picture is becoming PastedGraphic-1 (or2, 3 etc...).tiff.
The size of these .tiff files being at least 3Mo (or more), in general my messages never arrived to their destination.
This problem is not recurent: sometimes it happens, sometimes not, and you become aware of the problem when you receive an error messge of your internet provider regarding the size of the mail you sent and was not distributed because his size.
So this is a little bit boring....
Who got the same kind of problem? is there is a solution?

Thanks for your comment.
The original pictures are jpg. That's making this issue a little bit mysterious..
One more thing: last time I got the problem, I was sending 7 pictures from iPhoto: two of them were compressed in jpeg, the 5 other ones in this PastedGraphic.tiff
Total weight of the message: 21,9Mo instead of 1,8Mo. That's the difference!

When inserting pictures in a new mail message using the " photo browser" button I can view and select photos but the " choose " button is gone. What have I done wrong?

Hi Liz,
Sorry to hear you are having a similar problem. Last night I went to the tool bar at the top of iphoto, clicked on "File", then clicked "Browse Backups" in the drop down menu.    I have an external hard drive that is set up to Time Machine.   The Browse Backups opened the iphoto pages in the Time Machine. I selected a date one day ahead of the day I performed the now infamous update, and it showed my iphoto library as it had existed that day.   I then clicked "Restore Library" at the bottom right corner of the Time Machine screen.   Roughly 2 hours later my iphoto was back to normal.   When I opened iphoto there was a message saying I need to upgrade my program to be compatible with the new version of iphoto(version 9.2.1). I clicked "Upgrade" and within seconds it had done whatever upgrading it needed to do.
The only glitch in the restoration was that it restored the library as it appeared last week, so I no longer had photos I had imported this past weekend.   I simply went back to the Browse Backups in the drop down menu, when Time Machine opened I selected the page showing my pictures from this weekend and again said to Restore Library.   Roughly 45 minutes later the library was restored including the most recent photos.
I am now a happy camper.
I don't know if any of this will be of help to you because your email says you are having trouble with photos imported after the upgrade was performed.   Have you had any pop up notices when you first open iphoto, that tell you you need an upgrade to be compatible with the new iphoto?     If so have you clicked "upgrade"?
Good luck Liz, if you have Time Machine running as a back up to your library, maybe you wil be able to get help there, by following my instructions above.   Otherwise,   good luck with your investigations.   I'd be interested in hearing how you make out.

When resizing a picture in photo shop elements ?

When resizing a picture in photo shop elements 7,
can somebody explain the difference between bi-cubic and bi-cubic smoother?

Hello,
The way I understand it is this:
When you resize an image for sending to someone or viewing on the web or a monitor the size should be 640x480 pixels. You are actually making your image smaller and Adobe recommends using 'bicubic sharper'.
When you resize an image for printing you want to check your ppi or pixels per inch. Ideally it should be 300ppi with 200ppi being the lowest density for an acceptable print. A point to remember is that Canon cameras usually come in at 180ppi so check your camera and set it for the highest quality in the camera menu. Adobe recommends choosing 'bicubic smoother'.
The choice is actually yours to make in either case. If you don't like what you see choose one of the other resampling choices to get what you want.

HT4519 how do i get my server email to send pictures. Email works without pictures, but when attaching a picture the mail will not send

Email works without pictures, but when attaching a picture the mail will not send

Hi,
In Mail > Preferences > Accounts to can find out which STMP server you are using for outgoing items.
This can be one account.
I do this with a dial Up account I still have access to.
I can "fetch" mail over DSL and now Fibre.
However I have to be Logged in via Dial up to actually use their Servers to Send.
As a Consequence I "send" via one of the other Accounts STMP servers. (I tend to add a signature that reflects this account change)
The other thing that might explain what you are seeing is the Full Name Box.

How do I send pictures in mail

When I write an e-mail, how do I attach pictures from iphoto? I have clicked on attachment and then clicked on pictures but I don't see where I can choose the picture/s that I want to send. Also, when ever I send mail, I get a noise ( sounds like the spell check alert) right after I click send. This seems to be new, at least I don't remember hearing it before. I know the spelling is correct within the mail so I don't know whats causing this sound, any advise? Thanks for all your help.

One other alternative is to simply drag and drop a photo from within iPhoto onto the body of the email message you are composing. I find that much easier than digging through the arcane directory tree that iPhoto creates in the Finder.
Yet another method is to open iPhoto first and drag/drop the photo onto the Mail icon in the Dock. That will create a new outgoing message with the photo attached.

How to upload picture via facebook app but not resize picture

Hi
The facebook for blackberry so good, but one problem when upload picture, the picture capture via mobile very small but facebook when upload to resize very very small and quality of picture so very low in facebook site. I hope deverlop team fix size when upload and resize with minimum width=1200 pixel
Thanks so much

I agree with the above!
I just asked for help about that problem on another discussion.
My Bold 9900 takes GREAT pictures and it's too sad that when they are uploaded to FB they come up so small, which lowers the quality and the feel of the picture you know ^^
Can't wait to find the solution!
Best,

What dpi & quality when resizing pics in PSE for use in PRE?

For use in Premiere Elements 7:
When resizing my digital camera pictures in Photoshop to the reduced sizes 1000 x 750 you recommend when panning & zooming, there are a couple of additional choices.
One asks for the Resolution in dpi. Should it be 600, 300, or less?
The other thing is: Convert files to ??? JPEG max quality or standard or what?
I'm still a beginner at Premiere, so please don't get too technical!
Thanks, Elisabeth.

Do not worry about asking questions.
As for the .PSD's, these are Photoshop's native file format. They are uncompressed, and can contain Layers of several sorts. Now, I do not use PSElements, so do not know how it would differ from the full version of PS that I use. PS also does NOT have a SlideShow feature, so there could be major differences here. [See, you asked a question that I cannot answer!] If PSE does not list .PSD files as sources for SlideShows, then totally disregard my earlier comments on that workflow. I do all of my SlideShows in PrPro, which does Import .PSD's and in more ways, than PrE does.
Now, JPEG is a compressed file format. This means that some of the data is "thrown away," when the file is Saved_As JPEG. How much will depend on the "Quality" settings. The higher the Quality, the less data is discarded. The inverse is also true.
Now, there are two considerations, regarding image files for Video. One applies only to .PSD, and both apply to JPEG. The main one is the Image Size. This will be the horizontal and the vertical sizes in pixels, say 720 (h) x 480 (v). This applies to both (actually to TIFF's, PNG's, GIF's, TGA's, etc, but we're talking about JPEG and PSD only for now) file types, and applies equally. The Quality setting is the degree of compression. Higher Quality = less compression. This is where PSE is saying to use the higher Quality - in the compression settings. PSD files are not compressed, so this does not apply to them.
Hope that this clears things up a bit. I'll try to track down whether PSE can use .PSD files, but if you have the program, you might want to check the Help (F1) files, under File Formats, and also under SlideShows.
Just for clarity sake, here are the "codes" in my post:
PS = Photoshop
PSE = Photoshop Elements
PrPro = Premiere Pro
PrE = Premiere Elements
Good luck,
Hunt

Resizing images in mail

Does anyone know how I can resize an image that I have dragged into a mail. I assumed that mail would offer me a drag resize of images but this doesn't seem to be available or is it?
thanks

Hi Bob
I seemed to have hit a nerve.
Agreed mail is not primarily a graphics application however as I am sure you are aware these days many applications do do jobs that they initially didn't. Your assertion would suggest that web browsers should not display images. After all the first web browsers as I am sure you will remember did not show images as images were not supported in html.
Why on earth should I have to open a separate application just to reduce the size of an image by around 35% when nearly all other mail applications quite rightly happily allow the user to resize images to whatever size you like.
Whats the equivalent of a pedant in technology?

Resolution/Size of Pictures in Mail

Hi! I am a new Mac user, so if this question has been answered before or appears "dumb" please excuse the learning curve from a former PC owner.
I was wondering if anyone knew what resolution/picture size mail uses when you attach a picture to an outgoing email. When I use mail and change the picture size in the lower right hand corner, what size does mail change the picture to? For example, is medium 640 x 480?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi.
The Sizes are:
Large 1290x960
Medium 640x480
Small 320x240
If the size of the picture you attach is in between of any of those sizes, the larger one (or ones) will be dimmed.
Also, if you email a picture from iPhoto, you have one more option: full size (the size your camera suports).
Good Luck.

Abobe Photoshop Elements 5.0 resizing pictures?

Abobe Photoshop Elements 5.0 resizing pictures?
I just rencently got Photoshop Elements 5.0 and I have Windows XP service pack 2 and I read the help and did some things. I need to make some pictures smaller or bigger so the people I want in my banner look aroung the same size. When I try to resize the image it resiazes everything or I use the square tool and try to resize it my self but the pictures becomes out of shape. Also if I dont need all of my canvas that I created when I try to crop it t makes the pictures cut off. IS there a way to just get rid of the bottom od the canvas that I didn't do anything with? Here is a banner I made using photoshop and see the girls head is bigger cause I don't know how to resize it. http://i12.tinypic.com/2mcy245.jpg... I went to paint to cut off the extra canvas that was in the picture. I had used The Gimp before I used photoshop and with Gimp I knew how to resize pictures to place on another picture.
Additional Details
the crt + t makes my picture look bad. I guess I have to reseize myt pictures in gimp to make anything then.

while in the Transform tool, tick ON the "Constrain Proportions" tickbox at the top. then when you move a handle, the image will resize poprtionaltely instead of distorting.
