I'm not as sophisticated of a user as most that post to this site, but this little tip might help other newbies.
The iPhoto script for sending pix is fantstic for my needs of sending out pix of my two and three year old kids. However, it does clutter up the desktop. So, I just put the script in my dock and each time I want to e-mail pix , I grab the photo off iPhoto and drag it to the dock icon. I've set up preferences up for the script so that all I have to do is change the "TO:" address and click. It takes no time whatsoever.
