Downsize a picture attachment using Windows 7 and Microsoft Outlook

This is a great option for Windows 7 users:

2. Right click on a file name and choose Send to/ Mail recipient from the menu. The Attach Files dialog box will appear.
3. Choose Smaller, Small, Medium (the default 1024x768), Large, or Original Size.
4. Click the Attach button and a new message will be created with the images attached and sized as you have selected.

Get a jump on your files using Windows7 jump lists

In Windows 7, jump lists are a list of the files you have opened recently
from an application. These appear on the Start menu when you point at the
application. Click on the file name and the file will open.

But wait... there's more! If you have a file you want to have quick access to,
"pin" it to the list. Slide your mouse over the file name, and then click on the pushpin you see to the right of the name. The file will now appear at the top of the recent list. If you need to remove a file name from the list, just click the push pin again to "un-pin" it.
