I tried emailing some photos through iphoto, but they weren't sent as attachments so the recipient couldn't save them, they could only view them but not save them. Is there any way to make them attachments without having to right click my iPhoto library -> show package contents - > originals etc...?

Huh?

What are you using for email? If you are using Mail.app and have selected that in iPhoto (which version by the way), you should have no problems. If you are using web-based email, like Gmail, you have to first export the photos out of iPhoto (I usually just click the Mail button and let iPhoto shrink them to a selected email size rather than manually export then attach them to the web email) then attach them to an email message.

Have you tried emailing these messages back to yourself to see what you are getting? Maybe there is something wrong with the way the other person has mail set up.

Maybe I'm not understanding exactly how you are trying to do this.

Sorry I should have been more clear.

Yes I'm using the 'Mail' button in iPhoto, and mailing them through Mail.app.

The other person has web-based email, like yahoo and says the photos show up in the mail message, but when right clicked-save as...'d they get saved as "firefox document" which isn't a picture.

But they're there on the email message.

The person mentioned that there is no paper-clip indicating an attatchment so I was wondering if maybe does this on purpose for some reason?

I can only guess this is a Yahoo mail setting since I send pictures to my wife all the time (who uses only Yahoo web mail) and it works fine. I don't use Yahoo web mail, so hopefully somebody else can help you out here.

Just to make sure though, check Apple Mail help for "attachments". There are different options for attaching files (Windows friendly, end of message, etc.) that may help.
