Helping people with computers... one answer at a time.

This one's tough because there are so many variables that aren't specified. But the bottom line is that it's all about the email program you're using. And I'll bet that they're different programs at work and home.
•
If you're home email program isn't the same as the one at work, it's quite possible that's the root of the problem. Some programs don't automatically show attached pictures in, or below, the message body when you look at a message. Outlook Express, for example, does. Outlook does not, and there's no setting to make it do so.
Another option is that perhaps your email program at home is "protecting" you from embedded pictures. Check your security settings - Outlook, Outlook Express, Thunderbird & others now don't show pictures by default - you might simply need to disable that or perhaps add the sender to a "safe senders" list.
If you forwarded the mail from one account to another (say from work to home), it's possible that the mail client at work took the images embedded in the message and changed them to be attachments. It's possible that the sending mail client either just does it that way, OR you received the mail as HTML or Rich Text, and forwarded as plaintext. The later can't show pictures, hence would have to convert to attachments.

That depends on the mail program you use. Look for an "attach" menu, button or other type of control in the program. Check the mail program's on-line help.

OK boys and girls, here is how to send an image on a myspace comment. Use this code in your comment:
However, use the URL of the image you want to send. To find the full URL of a photo on the web, right-click on the photo and select "Properties," then copy the entire URL, including the HTTP:// part. Let me know if this helps.

I see this person having the same problem I do. It has got nothing to do with the e-mail program used, once this is something which happens with the Hotmail accounts, when opened through the IE Browser. I'm sure it has got something to do with the security settings of the browser, but I cannot find out which security tool is it for me to disable it, once I cannot see any tool related to website or e-mail pictures browsing.

To the Net, I am new - after 3 years, over 6 years ago, of using Windows'95 or '98 of work programs only - no internet. Henceforth, before getting my first PC, this Dell/Vista, I'd suffered through hours on three simple Internet tasks @ library. Last nite I got great set of pics coming through from same sender and wonder how I, a Net/Email novice can click on correct spot and avoid the grueling, frustrating hours of endless attempts as experienced previously @ town library. Thanks everyone for their understanding and direction and not "laughing out loud"!

Dear Leo - Related to this article, I have another scenario. When sending photos, my email program both embeds a photo, as well as includes the photos as attachments. Question: Does having embedded photos take up more space (size of email) than with the attachment alone? Therefore does it take up more space on the recipient's drvie/memory? Thanks!
July 13, 2009 9:24 PM
How to know the email has an attachment or not? how can we read/ dowload attchment in asp.net.

My wife used to right click on a photo and send to e-mail recepient and it would show up in the body of the mail without having to resize. After I updated using windows update it stopped working that way why? Using xp pro and outlook express.
January 23, 2012 8:19 AM
I use Thunderbird.
There are times when attachments don't show and times when there should be pictures or images which should be in the body of the email. They don't appear.
