RE: Nikon D50 photos refuse to be imported in O.E 6

EDIT: Also another thing to check is to be sure they (the files you are
attempting to insert to your e-mail messages) are set correctly in the file
types area located under tools/folder otions in any Windows Explorer window.
The file type should be *.jpe if I remember correctly, and the file type
should include files with the extension *.jpg and *.jpeg - the capitalization
of the extension should NOT make a difference, as far as I remember, but
please verify that with someone better equipped to answer that specific
question.

If neither of the previous replies/answers has helped, may I suggest that you
try adding them as ATTACHMENTS instead of inserting them into the text of the
message itself? Sometimes this works better, and if the recipient of your
message has their e-mail reader setup in a similar fashion, the end result
would more than likely be your desired end result. This often works for me
this way, and I almost always send myself a test copy of the e-mail before I
send it to others I want to send this way as a way of previewing the layout
and content. The only time it doesn't work so far that I can see, is when
the recipient's e-mail reader program is setup with the "View inline images"
option de-selected (If I remember correctly, that's in the options section,
but right now, as you can see from my current thread, I can't very easily
verify that for you at the current time.)

Also, be sure that you save the images locally prior to any attempt to send
via e-mail, as sometimes the program will attempt to use a cached image from
the source, and in some cases, depending on your method of import, could be
non-accessible at the time of sending (if it's still on your CF card, for
example). Another thing I would suggest, if you're not already using it, is
to use the NikonView program (I believe it's still at version 6 for the best
results), and I believe that newer purchases of Nikon cameras come with
another newer program that has similar, but not as extensive, features. In
said program you have the option of sending via e-mail, so long as you set it
up to use your default (or desired) e-mail reader program.

I hope that this helps. Please post your reply/ies to the newsgroup here
in any case, so that others with similar issues can use this potentially
helpful info as well.

I have O.E. 6 and Win XP.
I have doxens of photographs made by my (former-) Sony digital camera. I
can import them (not as an attachment, but in the text aerea, by means of
the import-button (correct in English?).
Shortly I got a Nikon D50 camera and I made brillant photo's with it. I
would send some to friends. I was very astonished: a red (small) cross
appears on the spot I want to implement a photograph.
The only difference between a Sony filename and a Nikon filename is *.jpg
and Nikon *.JPG. I changed that, but again I could not import the photograph
in the text. Who can explain that, and how can I change that problem?
Experts under the readers? Thank you so much!
