How To Add Multiple Inline Images into Gmail

Posted on timeDecember 5th, 2009 by userneil    flagComments Off


Gmail doesn’t support Inline images in emails directly. To add them you need to turn on a Lab Setting called Inserting Images. Even then, you cannot copy and paste multiple images or text and images in a single paste (if you can, please tell me how). Each image needs to be inserted one at a time. If there are a lot of images like in this step-by-step, your need patience and time.

01. In Gmail: Click Settings

Note: My Computer is selected by default.

10. Alternatively on a Mac using Safari: You can drag-and-drop an image on the Choose File button.

Make sure you drop it on the button.

11. The Step 10 method way can be repeated without clicking OK until all images are added.

This is quicker because all images can be added, still one at a time but without having to click OK and Insert Image for each image added.

12. Repeat steps 07-09 to adding one image at a time into the text.

If multiple images were added as in Step 10, just double-click on the appropriate image in the dialog box.

13. To Resize or Remove an image, click on the image to reveal the options
