how to attach a picture to gmail.I can do a PDF file or document.

more options

I open Gmail compose & reduce it to ~ 1/2 of monitor screen .Then i open my pictures folder, select the picture to be sent as an attachment & reduce this screen to ~ 1/2 of monitor screen & then i drag the picture to the Email i am composing.The picture goes over but it remains a full picture that occupies the entire area for the message.When i do this with a PDF file it transfers as an attachment. Further, when i send the Email with the picture it cannot be manipulated by receiver. I am using Windows 8.

    Any help would be appreciated.

You may need to use the paper clip button (attach file button) to ensure that Gmail attaches images instead of placing them inline in the message body.
