    Hi
    I don't know which is the best way.
    One method is to zip them into one file and upload it to a place such as MediaFire. Then you just email the link to the other person.
    MediaFire :-http://www.mediafire.com/

    Make a slide show with Windows Movie Maker.

    Save all the 10 photos into one folder. Zip the folder. Upload the folder to any web uploading sites (like megaupload). Send the URL to your friend.
  • upload to www.flickr.com or other similar photo hosts, and send them a link (be careful with privacy settings!)

    i am sure it would be better than clogging up both email programs..

    Use Opera Unite then you can share them without having to upload them.

    It is all very well telling the OP to ZIP them and email but that is no use at all if the ZIP file is too big to be sent by email.

    OP: What are the file sizes of the photos?

    As above it does depend on the size.
    There may be limits set by your email provider and the recipients.

    I sent some files recently that were 20meg - no problem sending but the recipients account wouldn't let them in.

    If they are not huge I would just attach them one at a time to an email and send them
