It is no longer necessary to use workarounds to put images in your messages or attach them. There is now a labs feature that allows you to insert images as easily as your favorite word processor.<\/p>\n

Begin by going to Settings and click on the Labs tab. Search for the feature called \u201cInserting images\u201d and click \u201cenable\u201d next to it then scroll to the bottom and save your settings. Now when you are composing a message, you should see a toolbar icon like this:<\/p>\n

\"gmail-insert-images-icon\"
\nYou\u2019ll want to make sure you are in Rich Formatting mode or the icon won\u2019t show up. If you don\u2019t see it, look for a link that says \u201cRich Formatting\u201d.<\/p>\n

Once setup, just click on the little image icon and you can insert images in a couple different ways. First you can upload an image from your computer, or you can provide a web URL to a specific image.<\/p>\n

To protect you from spammers, Gmail does not display URL based images in messages by default. If you are missing images, you\u2019ll need to click on the link near the top that says \u201cDisplay images below\u201d or \u201cAlways dislay images from\u2026\u201d to see images you embed.<\/p>\n
