Gmail - How To Embed Images into Your Email Without Having to Attach Them as Separate Files

By
Services for Real Estate Pros with Christine Wade

Hi, everyone.  I am back today with my 2nd ever video tutorial that I have uploaded to YouTube.  This one teaches us how to embed images into a Gmail message so that we can actually send out attractive html messages, rather than simply attaching separate text files and hoping our recipients can guess where we intended for them to show up! LOL

 

 

Note:  To do this, you will need to know three keystroke commands.  I say them in the video, but want to type them out so you can see them visually as well.

  1. Select All:  Ctrl + A (PC) or Command + A (MAC)
  2. Copy: Ctrl + C (PC) or Command + C (MAC)
  3. Paste:  Ctrl + V (PC) or Command + V (MAC)

 

The embedded video is really small...and since you need to read what's on my screen, it might be better to just go and watch it directly at YouTube.

Great Gmail tutorials.  Is Outlook far behind?

Hi Christine -- I tried inserting an image and it actually worked! But I did have a problem with formatting the photo: gmail did not give me the "text surround" option like the one in your video.  I did click on the "in line with text" but the block of text  only went one line in line with the photo.

Is there a workaround for this?

Thanks,

Toni
