compressing photos for email

[RegBurns]

When I used to email pictures to friends, I used the Win XP facility to
automatically compress photos before sending them. That worked well with XP
and Outlook XP, but it seems to be disabled now. Is there a work around?

What do you mean "it seems disabled now"; what changed?

Well, when I click on a photo in windows explorer, and then right click; I
get a drop down menu, which offers to let me send the photo by email. If my
Outlook 2002 was closed, it would open it and open a new email, and then I
would get a pop up at the top of the screen, asking if I wanted to compress
the photo or send it as a full sixed copy. Since installing Office 2007, the
pop up seems to have been uninstalled somehow. Now, when I go to email the
photo, it correctly opens Outlook 2007, and opens a new email, but it does
not offer me the opportunity to shrink the size of the photo
