| 1426148 | 2016-09-17 22:28:00 | I would upload to my free Dropbox account. And email a link to the recipient I try to limit attachments to 7MB, reducing photo sizes to about 100 kB for emailing It's not only possible ISP restictions, some recipients can be annoyed by large attachments |

| 1426149 | 2016-09-18 00:17:00 | Ok thanks. I seem to remember seeing somehow to reduce picture in size for emailing. PJ | Poppa John (284) | ||
| 1426150 | 2016-09-18 00:28:00 | General rule of thumb is 10MB. Gmail will take 25MB. With Office 365 you can change that to 150MB but its not really a home user feature. Tried the other day to send a 28MB file ( didn't realize it was that large) and outloook spat the dummy :( As BBmicro posted better to upload to your onedrive , Dropbox or some other place and send a link. OR break the photos down into multi zip files of say 7-8 MB each and send several separate emails. |

| 1426151 | 2016-09-18 00:59:00 | Ok thanks. I seem to remember seeing somehow to reduce picture in size for emailing. PJ I use this PJ... Light Image Resizer 4. Works well, just experiment with the sizes. I Usually copy and paste the folders/files to Desktop so as to not beggar up the originals, then delete the folder after you have finished all the wok. Best saving option is "Save a copy" download.cnet.com Ken :banana |

Zipped 33.4MB Hey PJ, You can send any size file, unzipped, if you use a gmail email account. Otherwise regular email tends to have a 10MB file size limitation. |
