Vista - Sending captions with pictures via email

Sending captions with pictures via email

The captions I enter to pictures in Windows Photo Gallery do not show when I
email those pictures. Should they? If yes, what am I doing wrong? If not, how
do I get a caption with each picture in the email?

Generally, the captions are stored within the JPG file itself, so yes, the captions should be there when you send a picture by mail.

What you need to do, after adjusting any properties in Photo Gallery, is check the bottom right-hand corner of the WPG window. If there is a blue icon next to the text that display the number of files, hover over it. The tip will tell you how many file and/or thumbnail updates are pending.

Generally, you should wait for that icon to disappear before you do anything else. If you send an e-mail before file updates have been completed, then the captions may not be included with the picture you send.

Please report back if this "problem" has gone away.

Re: Sending captions with pictures via email

Problem still exists. The icon is gone. I just sent a test email that has a
caption and the picture goes OK but not the caption. Any ideas on what I
should try? Thanks.
