keytoner Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 Hello, this seems like a dumb question... but I want to be able to send an e-mail with an image being a "link". I can't figure out how to do it, text is simple, but an image is different! I'm sure it is simple to you, but I just don't where to find out how to do it. I don't want anyone to do it for me, I just really could use some guidance. Thank you very much if anyone can point me in the right direction! Also, I apologize if I posted this in the wrong place. Thank you, John Gann Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsonesuk Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 The image has to on a server, accessible through internet, if that's' what you are asking? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justsomeguy Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 In terms of the actual email, you would use HTML to compose it. Most email clients won't support the full set of HTML in emails, but showing an image and making it a link shouldn't be problem. People will usually be prompted if they want to download external images though, but you can make a multi-part email that includes a plain text version and an HTML version so that they email client can decide which one to show.
