How to Send Flickr Photos Easily in Yahoo! Mail

Sure, it's easy to send links to your (or others') Flickr albums and photos. If you've got the time and stomach, you can copy preview images to the email, too.

If you don't want to spend that time, how about browsing your Flickr photostream right in Yahoo! Mail? How about picking multiple images and send them easily in a new message — thumbnails, automatic guest passes for private photos and all?
