How do I email a folder of photos?

[Christine M]

I want to email a folder of 30 photos, is there a way of sending them attached to one email (i use Windows 7)

Even as a zip file, the folder will probably be too large for Yahoo's attachment limits. Yahoo's limit is 25 MB per mail in total for free accounts AND for the Plus paid accounts, but often even that size fails to attach and send - or is rejected by the receiver's server as too large. It also slows down the mail program for those with downloaded mail. You might try some of the file and video sharing services like Flickr (a Yahoo product), Photobucket, Snapfish, Picasa or many others.

There are many free services which allow sending files of 50 MB or even 2 GB. Set up an account once you decide which service to use. Once uploaded, the file(s) can be downloaded by the recipient after you send the link. The files are available for a limited time, depending on the service used.
People with desktop mail clients will appreciate your sending large files this way, since it speeds up their mail downloads.

Too Big for Email - Send up to 2 GB at the same time (8 hours of upload time) Upload multiple files at the same time, with password protection, delivery receipt, encryption and room for a message too.
