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?

Resize Images in Mails

Is there any possibility to adjust the size of of the preview of an image attachment?
I've read that if you insert a image in a mail, you can do so in the bottom right corner but I have nothing there.
Would be very glad for any help!
Thanks!

An image from the web is not definitive, and not what the button is designed for. Typically an image from the web is not an attachment, unless you first download and see that it has an extension of .jpg or other photo format type.
The "optical size", if I understand your meaning is not needed in Mail with a true photo file attachment -- Mail will fit the image in the window you have for the message.
The image size button is normally needed to downsize a photo file to what will allow it to send -- for example from 15 MB to say maybe 800 KB. With either size image file, Mail would display it within the limits of the current window.
It sounds to me that you are talking about images in HTML and wanting to resize those within the text, and not an attachment such as a photo taken with a digital camera.

Resizing images within Mail not working in Snow Leopard

Hi,
I recently upgraded to Snow Leopard on both my desktop (iMAC Quad Core) and my MacBook Pro. I'm now experiencing an issue when I attach images within the Mail application.
In the past, if I attached an image I could resize it by selecting the option at the lower right of the window and it would scale the image accordingly. Now if I select "large" it resizes the image as if I selected small. It's tiny, like 30KB. I tried it on both machines and I get the same thing.
This was never an issue before upgrading to Snow Leopard. In the past if I selected "large" it would scale my image down to roughly 4X6 300dpi.
Has anyone else found a fix for this issue?
Thanks so much!
Michael

Hi Terence,
thanks for your reply.
But i have now a Problem!
iPhoto 09 itself can send max. 10 pics in one mail. When i drag & drop more photos to mail as attachement, mail can´t resize photos with greater than 150dpi correctly.
I have many photos greater than 150 dpi
With new iPhoto 09 i can not send:
1. more than 10 photos
2. without "zipping"
with mail i can send more than 10 photos at one time but i cant resize these images!
Allso whe i use this way:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2627690&tstart=0
The only way to send more than 10 photos with resizing the images is:
1. export these photos from iphoto to a folder with resizing function
2. drag or attach these photos to a mail
3. send mail
4. delete the created folder with images
5. empty trash
iPhoto 8 can send many photos at one time including resizing and display the estimated size of mail (e.g. Megabytes).

Mail is automatically resizing images

When attaching an image to mail it is automatically being resized to approx. 160 kb no matter what size the image really is. I can't seem to find any preferences in Mail that apply and Aperture export is set at Original size JPEG. Any clues? Recently upgraded to Leopard and iLife 08'.

Steve:
Are the photos also being resized automatically in dimension? You should be getting an window with the option for picking the size of the image to send, small, medium, large and actual size. Are you getting that window when you select the photo and click on the email button? Also at the bottom of the email window will be a menu button on the lower right with the size options once the photo is in the email.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

Where is the image attachment resize function in Mail?

I have not been able to find an answer to where the resize function in Mail on SnowLeopard has gone in MountainLion. Which I just updated to, skipping Lion.
thank you for your time.

I'm too bad in math! can't figure the correct function to resize images

This is driving me crazy, just becasue I don't have the
logical brains it takes:
I want to dynamically (PHP) resize images, according to a max
width and max height parameters.
What's giving me a problem is that max width and max height
are not equal, AND the images should be
resized only if their original size is too big:
$max_width = 650;
$max_height = 500;
$size = getimagesize($image);
$img_width = $size[0];
$img_height = $size[1];
Now how do I write a function that will resize images of any
possible size, *only if they need to*,
to fit in the maximum size *rectangle*?...
I have tried for hours to get it right, and I am ending up
with a function so full of conditionals
and sub-sub-conditionals that I'm getting completely lost.
I hope you can help, I'm sure it should be very simple...

here's the solution. This will correctly and proportionally
reduce image size according to ANY max
width and max height, no matter what the difference between
max width and max height:
if(($width <= $max_width) && ($height <=
$max_height)){
// The image is the right size already
$targetwidth = $width;
$targetheight = $height;
}else{
// if width > height
if($width >= $height){ // if height > width
$targetwidth = $max_width;
$targetheight = $targetwidth * ($height / $width);
// here we must check again if reduced height is not still
greater than max_height
if($targetheight > $max_height){
$targetheight = $max_height;
$targetwidth = $targetheight * ($width / $height);
}elseif($height > $width){ // if height > width
$targetheight = $max_height;
$targetwidth = $targetheight * ($width / $height);
// here we must check again if reduced width is not still
greater than max_width
if($targetwidth > $max_width){
$targetwidth = $max_width;
$targetheight = $targetwidth * ($height / $width);

Resizing images in draft emails in Postbox

Does anyone know how to resize images in draft emails in Postbox?
Barry

Welcome to Apple Discussions, stated.
Open the image in Preview > Tools menu > adjust size, then drag to Mail.
The type below the image should be an issue just tap "return" from the line the image is on and you should be able to type beneath it fine.

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.

Which approach to use for resizing image

There are two ways of resizing images as I know:
1. image.getScaledInstance(width,height,hint);
Using hint like Image.SCALE_AREA_AVERAGING gives somehwat satisfactory resizing.
2. static BufferedImage resize(GraphicsConfiguration gc, BufferedImage source, int w, int h, Object hintValue) {
BufferedImage result = gc.createCompatibleImage(w, h, source.getTransparency());
Graphics2D g2 = result.createGraphics();
g2.setRenderingHint(RenderingHints.KEY_INTERPOLATION, hintValue);
double sx = (double) w / source.getWidth(), sy = (double) h / source.getHeight();
g2.drawRenderedImage(source, AffineTransform.getScaleInstance(sx, sy));
g2.dispose();
return result;
where the hint passed is RenderingHints.VALUE_INTERPOLATION_BILINEAR ;
Now which of the two method method should I use-using image.getScaledInstance() or using AffineTranform ? opr is there any other way which is faster but provides good result?
i am creating an image editor, so the GUI dialog will have oprtion to choose the algorithm. I want the method which provides better result yet faster.

Need help on quality of resized image!!

I am required to resize images to max 1240pixel (longest dimension) as a submission of work, though when work is viewed it will be at 30"x40". Can not figure out a way to do this where images don't become quite pixelated when viewed at larger size. Appreciate any suggestions.

Is there some software to verify if my graphics card is shotty?
Techtool Pro has some testing, the AHT tests VRAM, but game benchmarks and stressing will tell you the most.
Is re-seating the graphics card or memory worth trying?
Absolutely. Just don't reinstall the graphics card until you clean it thoroughly.
Cleaning the dust out of my machine?
YES. A dust filled graphics card heatsink will cause the GPU to cook, and cause problems thet you describe.
If I need a new graphics card, what are my options? Do I have to purchase it via Apple store? I would like to stick with an Nvidia card so am I stuck buying the same card I currently have or can I upgrade?
You don't have to buy from Apple, but using with OS X limits your choices to Mac compatible or flashable PC versions.
There is an awful lot of user input into this topic here:

I need some help resizing my images on PS6. I am using a mac and have been trying to resize with same resolution and constaining proportions but for some reaseon the smaller resized image appears pizelated.

I need some help resizing my images on PS6. I am using a mac and have been trying to resize with same resolution and constaining proportions but for some reaseon the smaller resized image appears pizelated. Heres an image of before and after. The first image I use is a JPG 72dpi 1500px x1500px and I want to downsize it to 600x600px same res, but it keeps pixelating, this has never happened before. Any suggestions, thoughts?
thanks!

I wouldn't say pixelated; more like blurry.
Like ConnectedCreative said, what steps are you using? Are you using "bicubic sharper" when resizing down?

Upload and Resize Image not inserting filename in database

I have a form that I created using the insert record form wizard. One of the fields is a file field and my form enctype is set to multipart/form-data. I then used the upload and resize image behavior and set the parameters. When testing the form the file uploads to the correct directory but no entry is made into the database for that particular field. The other fields are entered into the database just fine. If it helps, here is the code generated before the tag:
 
 <?php require_once('../../Connections/test.php'); ?>
 <?php // Load the common classes require_once('../../includes/common/KT_common.php'); // Load the tNG classes require_once('../../includes/tng/tNG.inc.php'); // Make a transaction dispatcher instance $tNGs = new tNG_dispatcher("../../"); // Make unified connection variable $conn_test = new KT_connection($test, $database_test); // Start trigger $formValidation = new tNG_FormValidation(); $tNGs->prepareValidation($formValidation); // End trigger //start Trigger_ImageUpload trigger //remove this line if you want to edit the code by hand function Trigger_ImageUpload(&$tNG) { $uploadObj = new tNG_ImageUpload($tNG); $uploadObj->setFormFieldName("picture"); $uploadObj->setDbFieldName("picture"); $uploadObj->setFolder("../images/"); $uploadObj->setResize("true", 120, 0); $uploadObj->setMaxSize(1500); $uploadObj->setAllowedExtensions("gif, jpg, jpe, jpeg, png, bmp"); $uploadObj->setRename("auto"); return $uploadObj->Execute(); } //end Trigger_ImageUpload trigger // Make an insert transaction instance $ins_team = new tNG_insert($conn_test); $tNGs->addTransaction($ins_team); // Register triggers $ins_team->registerTrigger("STARTER", "Trigger_Default_Starter", 1, "POST", "KT_Insert1"); $ins_team->registerTrigger("BEFORE", "Trigger_Default_FormValidation", 10, $formValidation); $ins_team->registerTrigger("END", "Trigger_Default_Redirect", 99, "../team.php"); $ins_team->registerTrigger("AFTER", "Trigger_ImageUpload", 97); // Add columns $ins_team->setTable("team"); $ins_team->addColumn("id", "NUMERIC_TYPE", "POST", "id"); $ins_team->addColumn("sort", "NUMERIC_TYPE", "POST", "sort"); $ins_team->addColumn("name", "STRING_TYPE", "POST", "name"); $ins_team->addColumn("title", "STRING_TYPE", "POST", "title"); $ins_team->addColumn("description", "STRING_TYPE", "POST", "description"); $ins_team->addColumn("picture", "FILE_TYPE", "FILES", "picture"); $ins_team->setPrimaryKey("id", "NUMERIC_TYPE"); // Execute all the registered transactions $tNGs->executeTransactions(); // Get the transaction recordset $rsteam = $tNGs->getRecordset("team"); $row_rsteam = mysql_fetch_assoc($rsteam); $totalRows_rsteam = mysql_num_rows($rsteam); ?>

If the reason is about memory, warning message should be happened when upload the image, because "show thumbnail" means resize at second time, how come you failed to resize the picture that system let it upload succeed at the first time by the same resize process?
upload procedure
a.jpg: 2722x1814, 1.2mb
upload condition: fixed width 330px, 1.5mb
"upload and resize" a.jpg -> file upload -> "resize engine" -> passed (but not work and no warning message)
"show thumbnail" a.jpg -> "resize engine" -> failed (not enough memory)
it doesn't make sense.
and you miss an important key point, I upload the same picture myself, and resize work, so I said it happened at random, and that's why I am so worried.
