Good to see 's suggestion worked for and that called out the limitations that can occur. For readers coming to this thread years later: Gmail's compose interface and experimental "Labs" options have changed over time, so inline-image behavior depends on compose mode, browser support, and recipient mail client. The notes below cover common causes and practical workarounds when images do not embed in message text.

Common causes and what to try: make sure you are composing in rich-text (not plain-text) mode; modern browsers (current Chrome or Firefox) handle paste and drag-and-drop better than older ones; very large files may be sent as Drive links or treated as attachments, so resize or compress images before inserting; some recipients or gateways block remote images or convert inline images into attachments — include descriptive text and a short fallback message; for repeat or mass-email needs, host images on a web server or use a dedicated mail service that handles HTML emails and delivers hosted images reliably.

Quick troubleshooting checklist:

  • Confirm compose is rich-text (plain text prevents inline images).
  • Try paste-from-clipboard or drag-and-drop in a modern browser.
  • Reduce image dimensions/size (aim for <= 600px width for email).
  • If images still attach instead of embedding, send a test to different clients (Gmail web, Outlook, mobile) to isolate recipient-client behavior.
  • For newsletters or consistent layout, use an email tool that supports hosted images and testing across clients.

These steps preserve the thread outcome while covering likely edge cases readers may meet today.

Gmail does not let you put pictures in with the text. You will have to attach the image to the email.

I am not sure where do you want to insert the image. Insert image with message in Gmail, go to Gmail settings. Open the labs tab, there is a lot of application that can be working with gmail. Find 'Inserting images' and choose 'Enable', and then click 'Save Change', when you done with this setting, you can insert image into the gmail by clicking 'Insert Image' from the editor.
Hope this help !
