If they come as an attachment, you can usually click on the symbol and have 
it open in a picture viewer program that comes with the computer. If they 
are part of the message, you will have to click and save to a file 
someplace. Then you can go to a blank word processor document and insert the 
picture and it will show up as a much smaller picture. You can then either 
print it out or just delete it.
If you have a scanner, the OS for the scanner should allow you to open the 
saved picture in the viewer program. I have Paperport or my scanner and it 
is called The Paperport Desk top. Paperport will not customize resize the 
picture but it will reduce it to a size where you can see it all in a much 
smaller format.

I also have the Photoshop program with up dates in case I want to actually 
resize a picture. Photoshop, however, is a very expensive program to 
purchase, costing well over several hundred dollars.
