Pictures don't know you want to send them by email.
I guess that after selecting, you right-click and use the "send to…" option. This is provided by your operating system and that is where you need to configure exactly what it does.
I always do it the other way round. I write an email message and attach pictures or documents to it. You can
- drag-and-drop onto the address box in Thunderbird,
- use the menu in Thunderbird ("File|Attach|Attach files…"),
- use the attachment button (the one with the paperclip icon) on the toolbar in Thunderbird's composition window.
And in addition to all that, right-click|send to|Thunderbird works just fine here. Does your context menu offer "Thunderbird"?
To make the Send To command work in Windows 7, install the MS Visual Studio update:
