Sending Photo Mail In Adobe Elements

Elements 6 just has about every new gizmo going, and one of the new and cool features is Photo Mail. Just think about how easy it will be to send one of you awesome new photos you've just altered with just a few clicks of your mouse.

Its really very simple to do, your first steps are the same as you would if you was to send an Photo Attachment. This time you need to click on the Photo Mail button instead, you'll find this under the Share Tab. Once you've clicked on that you'll then be given a selection of photos where you can either select or de-select, then it's just a case of adding your recipients mail address.

In Elements 6 you are given an option to add a stationery template if you like, Elements also gives you the option of choosing the design theme you want to use. Once you have chosen your design theme you are then allowed to configure the layout options. You'll find these options in the control panel which are on the left. Your options are; Choose the photo size, layout of the photos, and your different font and text. You are also given an option which you can add a caption if you like.

With Photo Mail you are given two options for sending mail, plain text or HTML format which most people use these days. With the HTML email you can get a more attractive layout skin to your gallery of photos, plus another great benefit is your recipients can view your photos without having to double-click your attachment icons to open them.
