These quick information sharing platforms have no ability for editing, meaning that cropping has to be particularly considered for photos. Ensuring that only the detail you want to present is visible requires severely editing a picture. Note that the final picture that is sent on a message is also heavily compressed, leading to much lower quality than the initial one. This is also the main reason photograph should never be shared on instant messengers and must be transferred in their original form, through other means, if they are later used for any publishing purposes.

<code>''Instant messaging platforms are never a substitute for traditional content sharing options. They are only advisable as preview options, since a lot of the original image quality is lost to reduce the storage demands on the platform, and you have no control over it.''</code>

A good e-mail has to be designed with the intended recipient clearly considered. In most circumstance, this means that including large pictures is ill-advised. As a rule of thumb, most images should have a resolution below 1000 pixels on any axis and if multiple images are used, the final message size should be below 5 MB, particularly when directed at corporate e-mail. This ensures that just about any e-mail service will accept such messages. Services such as Yahoo! mail may accept a maximum size of 25 MB. This creates a rough guideline of the maximum size of photos you should incorporate. Messages with more than 5 photos are cumbersome to navigate as messages have few layout options that work on computers as well as mobile devices.

<code>''The email system is not recommended for video sharing as content is neither transferred compactly or easy to modify. Most e-mail servers have different but always too low attachment size limits to allow decent quality videos to be transferred. Use other file sharing options for this purpose.''</code>
