How to Insert Image in email yahoomail / gmail

I am going to explain how to insert Images within the email (Inline).

The best way which I use most of the times is to upload the desired image in any image hosting website and use the link. I will explain how to do this step by step.

Goto any Image Hosting website, generally I use http://imageshack.us

If you have an account with it you can login/ No problem even if you don't have any account.

Browse your image from your computer and upload it.

I like the feature 'Image resize', it reduces the original image into the selected size and uploads.

Once the image is uploaded you will be given with a link.

Copy the Direct Link and open it in Mozilla Firefox or Internet Explorer.

Only Image should be opened. After opening the image press Ctrl + A (Select All) and copy the image Ctrl + C (Copy).

This will copy the image as Rich Text Format.

Now compose a mail and paste (Ctrl+V) it in the mail body. This works in yahoo / gmail. I guess this works in any Web mail client.
