size of Photo Attachments

I have MSN so I can't send photos from my Windows Photo Gallery. It says
it's not compatible. So in sending attachments from my MSN e-mail, I am
having trouble with attachment size. For some reason some of my photos end
up being over 1,500 KB. Which of course takes forever to send. I need to
make them smaller some how. I don't know how they got bigger. When some of
them are normal sized and they are taken with the same camera and imported
the same way. I really could use someones help.
Thank you

What size pictures (pixels) is your digital camera set to take? If you use
digital zoom on the camera the pictures will have less pixels just as if you
cropped them before sending them.

I am new at this and I don't know how to find that info. My camera is a Nikon
Coolpix L11 3x optical zoom 6.2-18.6 mm1;2.8-5.2. What ever that means. The
pictures I took last month and loaded into my computer are a good size, the
ones I took on Christmas are huge and we didn't change anything.
Thank you
