1

Open your email

Find the icon that looks like a white envelope. Click it one time with your left mouse button.

2

Click the 'Compose' or 'New' button

It is usually in the top corner. It may have a pencil or a plus sign next to it.

3

Type the person's email address

In the box that says 'To', type the email address of the person you want to write to.

💡 An email address always has the @ symbol in it.

4

Add the photo

Look for a paperclip icon. Click it, then choose the photo you want to send from your computer.

5

Press 'Send'

Find the blue button that says 'Send' and click it once. That's it — your photo is on its way!
