resizing a photo when emailing

**slick1** · 09-07-08, 03:45 PM

Hi all,
I seem to be having a problem with windows XP. Previous to formatting, I could click on a photo, right mouse click and it would give me the option to send the picture via e-mail.

Now that I’ve formatted my PC, I right mouse click on a photo (Approx 4MB) and it doesn’t ask me to resize the photo.

Does anybody know how to get that option box to reappear?

thanks

try this:

1. Click Start
2. Click Run
3. Paste this into the text field:

regsvr32 %windir%\system32\shimgvw.dll

4. Click OK
5. A message box will appear saying the file was correctly registered.
6. Reboot.

If still a problem check out this:
