Hi all 

first I would like to say thank you to metulburr for putting together all those learning resources in one place, your awesome. 

I plan on writing a script which will need to retrieve jpgs from a folder and attach them to an email and send to my own email. I figured this task would be perfect for a python project. My question is were should in start. Thank you
Start by drawing out a simple plan of the elementary steps that need to be done in order to accomplish your goals.
Then write code for step 1
You should start with whatever you know you can do, or whatever is easiest fill the gaps as you go along. Listing the JPGs in a folder sounds like a good place to start.
