what type of photo is it? what is the file extension? .jpg or .gif, or .bmp, or something else? Your email program might not accept certain types of files.
If that's the case, then you may need to convert your file to a .jpg file. Email programs always accept .jpg files, as long as they are not over the size limit.
One program that will do that for you is Microsoft Paint. Most computers come with that program automatically.
Go to Start, then Programs, then Accessories, then Paint
Leave it open. Now open your picture, right click it and 'copy'.
Now go to Paint, click on 'Edit', and choose 'paste'.
crop or do whatever you need to do to it to make it look the way you want, then go to File, choose 'Save As', type in a new title of the photo, and --very important-- for 'save as type', choose .JPEG
Save in a place where you will find it - now you have the correct file type. Hope this works. :)

Many email gateways have a restriction on the size of files you can add as attachments. Acommon default seems to be either 3Mb or 5Mb. Check the size of your file. Try reducing the size of it in an editor.

I know what you mean and I cannot get that situation straightened out yet.. It has to do with what the picture is..an art.file or a jpg.file, etc and I am having problems with that same thing and have not worked it out yet.

Maybe your file size is too large?
