I am having trouble sharing images via email with Aperture 3. No matter what size I have in the preferences, the image is thumbnail size. The requested size flashes on the email a couple of times but the small size remains and is sent. I am using OSX 10.7.2. Any suggestions how I may send larger sizes?

What mail program?
Do you have a size drop-down on the lower right of the Mail composing window?
The most likely possibility is that you have the size in the e-mail message set small. When you attach an image to an e-mail in the lower right hand corner you'll see this:
Make sure it's set to the size you want.
If that's not it post back detailing the export preset you are using.

Thanks for your help. That was the answer to my problem, I failed to see the lower right message. Sometimes this octageneran fails to see everything,8-)

Glad it solved the problem, most times we all fail to see everything 😉 ( (;-) in old timey emoticons )

I have taught many how to use GUI-based computers. The number of controls they are aware of on the screen always progresses, usually linearly with the amount of time they spend actively learning the GUI. Beginners are totally flummoxed that windows can hide other windows. A step beyond that, they are amazed that they can resize windows using the mouse cursor. Those two are trivial to most users today, but they illustrate 1. that there is nothing "intuitive" about the GUI, and 2. that the amount one perceives is dependant on the amount one knows. IME, this has nothing to do with age, and everything to do with experience using a GUI.
Here is a good hint: if you are using a Mac and can't figure out how to do something, look for something to click. If you find something that seems promising, try "{Option}+clicking".
The interface is richer than any one person can master. Frank's statement "most times we all fail to see everything 😉 " is, imho, _always_ true. We never see everything, even in the grossly limited resolution of our computer screens.
Anyone having trouble sharing large images via email with Aperture 3 and OSX 10.7.2?
