How can I send multiple pics from my email?

Asked by Val123 (12734points) January 24th, 2010

If I try to send more than 3 at a time, everything gets totally hung up. But sometimes I get emails that have 10 or more pictures attached, and it doesn’t seem to be an issue.

It depends upon the size, bit-wise, of the files, not the number of the files. If you are sending large pictures, share them by uploading them all to Google Docs, and then your friend can download them.

What type of email do you have? Yahoo, Gmail, hotmail, etc.

I would just use http://imgur.com/ and send links.

Every e-mail provider is different so what works with one will fail with another.

@ChocolateReigns I have sbcgloal.net. But…I can recieve multiple pics with no problem. I do have Yahoo accounts..would those work better?
@johnpowell Thanks. I’ll go look at that now.

@Val123 Sorry, but I really don’t know. I was just thinking it’d be helpful for people that did know. Sorry about that.

@pdworkin is right about file size being a potential issue. If you just “save” them, kb is usually about ten times higher than if you save them for web or email. Big files take a lot longer to send and can sometimes jam the whole process.
