Can you reduce the size of a graphic you import into email message

I like to include images in my email messages sometimes. I do a lot of imported smileys that are just too large and would like to be able to reduce those. In other programs they give you handles to grab and resize right in the message window itself... Opera does not... at least as far as I know.

Yeh, Opera just doesn't have that.

Under the insert menu, you can choose "HTML" and insert markup like:

<img src="file.gif" style="width: 20px; height: 20px">


to get the image the size that you want. But, the src attribute must contain a URI to a remote image on a server or a data URI representing an image. Putting a file URI in there won't work as Opera won't attach the file to the message.
