Hopefully this is the right forum and the right question. I hae always let the machine do the work for me and I would like to learn how to make it do something I want to do.

I transmit photos from the field via ftp and email quite a bit. The problem I am having is with email. I would like to know how to create a script (is that the right term) to have images emailed immediately after I save them to a specific folder.

Any ideas?

Using OS X 10.4 on a PB.

Cheers

Joe

Look into Applescript and folder actions:

This place will be useful. Someone might even write one for you if you ask nicely:
