It's more the interface, than the functionality, that I struggle with To change the size of a picture, you need to right-click and go to the properties and specify your best guess for a new width and height It doesn't maintain the aspect ratio when one dimension is changed If the image had handles in the corners, it would be much more intuitive

Sometimes, after my text is all entered, it says I don't have permission to browse the server's images, or to upload new images, even though I am the administrator I get a "You don't have permissions to browse/upload " error I need to save the text, log out and re-login and try again (it might have something to do with sending a test message Before sending, it always seems to work, but after sending I seem to get the permission error, maybe?)

Also, uploading a local picture requires first selecting it for upload to the server and then another selection from the server to insert it into the email A single insert of local files would be nice

While I have your ear, when inserting a picture, there is a nice big "Browse Server" button that is easy to see if you are re-using a previously uploaded file, but to upload a new file, the "Upload" link is in a different place, much smaller, looks like regular text and it's generally hard to remember where it is If it has to be a two step process, then there should be equally obvious buttons for the two steps

I'm not sure you have any control over any of this I suspect it is the way the add-in works That's why I asked about the way Tiny MCE works
