Hi all. Stupid question here. How can I send a photo as an attachment, not to appear in the body of the email. I would like to do this so the attachment can be saved by the recipient. I tried clicking the attach symbol, and then went to i-photo, but it seemed it was going to attach the entire library.
Am I doing something wrong?
 
Just drag the photo file into the email
Control-click the picture and choose "view as icon"

The recipient should be able to save it regardless of whether it goes inline or as an attachment. Depending on what email client they use, there will be a place, probably in "Edit" that says something to the effect of "Save attachment". If they use that, it will save to their desired place and then they can do what they want with it.
