photo attachments to email

I've attached photos (jpg) to an email but receiver gets only thumbnail that cannot be expanded or opened. I export photo from Lightroom as jpg, then use the attachment icon in Mail to attach photo to email. Why won't it open in receivers email on their iPad? Help!

email pics to email

I have the same problem...trying to attach 1.5mb picture to email it attaches as an image in the email as opposed to a jpeg file in the attachment bar.

receiver gets just a thumbnail of just a few KB rather than the mb size of image I sent.


any help or advice much appreciated

i don't use any other photo suite but iPhoto and it makes attaching an image easy and allows you to chose the size you want sent.

Try dragging pic to desktop then dragging to email.

Confirm what Andy advises. Copy to desktop and then hit attachment.

Thanks Andy

Sounds like a good idea. I will try it! Appreciate your help.
