Gmail now allows embedded images in emails

Google Gmail Labs has a new feature addition.

This one is named Inserting images and it does exactly that.

Gmail users can now embed images in email messages just like they can do on regular email clients.

Normally, Gmail attaches any image as an attachment. This feature makes it possible for the users to include the image within the message itself.

Google did warn in a blog post: “Keep in mind that Gmail doesn’t show URL-based images in messages by default to protect you from spammers, so if you’re sending mail to other Gmail users, they’ll still have to click “Display images below” or “Always display images from …” to see images you embed.”
