sending a photo album via gmail

I read a post that asked this questions "how to send a photo album via gmail"

The response was " Save photos to a folder on desktop. Zip it and send that".

Perfect!

Except what does zip it mean? Im not computer savvy and I really would like to get this email sent asap.

Downloading Full Resolution Images to Photos - Emails with compressed attachments Both iPhone and Apple mail say "Downloading Full Resolution Images to Photos" for an email that had jpeg's attached as "Actual size". I'm sending jpeg files (approximately 3.5MB each, and "actual size" pull down is selected on my desktop machine when sending. Then I receive significantly reduced sized jpegs on my phone (around 100kb). On the email browser on the phone there is a message that says "Downloading Full Resolution Images to Photos Available until..date...." ,but there is nothing that tells how to download them. How do you do this? I've seen others post it, but no accurate answers. Anyone?

Compress or uncompress files and folders on Mac - Apple Support

Note that this will not compress the images very much - JPEGS are well compressed - but it will let you treat the folder as a file.
