When I send pictures that I have taken with my digital camera, it takes a lon time for the pics to attach to the email because the fiiles are so huge, so I can only send 3 or 4 at a time. There must be a better way? Any help?

The pictures come out of most digicams in compressed JPEG, so most are between 1MB and 2 MB. That's pretty well compressed for pics that are really 9 MB to 15 MB.
You can make them smaller yet by reducing the physical size and resolution (pixels per inch). Use your picture editing software to change dimensions and ppi.
If you only want them to be viewable on-screen, the small low res. pics will transmit quickly and will look fine on a computer screen. 72 to 100 ppi is fine for this purpose.
If someone wants to print one, you could send then one of the original high res versions, or mail them a CD with the high res versions. 200 to 300 ppi is needed by most printers.
Happy Emailing!

Use photo editing software to reduce the resolution to 72 dpi (dots per inch)--that's the highest resolution that most computer monitors are capable of displaying. Your camera uses a much higher resolution to capture photo-quality images, but you don't need to send a photo-quality file unless the recipient will be having photo prints made from what you're sending.
Also, for file format, choose medium- or low-resolution .jpg.

saving them in JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group) format should compress your pictures without making them low quality
