I think the Mail in Windows 8 is very poor so I downloaded Windows Essentials to use Windows Live Mail.

The problem I am having is that when I attach photos to an email it automatically uses SkyDrive.

I cannot find how to change this, is it possible? The Windows 8 mail uses SkyDrive as an option.

I do not really want to use Windows 8 mail for messages with attachments and Live Mail for those without.
