    Compress them into a zip file using 7zip or similar. This will be considered one single file rather than 304.

    However, the filesize my be too big for many of the free email services. But worth a shot though.

    Alternatively, you could use something call Dropbox. You install it and then invite your GF to it and you upload the images to a folder and she downloads from that folder. Your dropbox is on your PC so no messing with web broswers and the like, it is all very easy.

    There are many online photo sites. I use Picasa which is free from Google. There is an associated program on your computer to maintain your photo library. It is a simple matter to tell it to upload all 302 pictures and it happens in the background while you do something else. Your GF can then view the pictures online. You can control who is allowed to see them.

    I do not believe there is any practical way to email them. The only other alternative is to zip them all into one file and upload them to a site such as Rapidshare and the other person downloads them. I still think Picasa is much easier in the long run. Adding more pictures in the future is simple.

    You need an archival program like WinZip or WinRAR or whatever the Mac equivalent is. The program takes a bunch of files and compresses them into one archive file (typically referred to as a Zip file). Not only does this make the actual file size of the items you are sending smaller, it turns it into one file.

    Your recipient will also need a utility to uncompress/unzip the file you send. So if you use (for example) WinZip, your recipient will also need to use WinZip to open the file.

    Put them a in a compressed zip or "archived" folder.

    Put all the photos in a folder then ctrl click the folder and choose archive file.

    Then you can send that.
