Pasting Illustrator image into email body

I would like to paste a picture I created in Adobe Illustrator CS3 (Version 13.0.2) into the body of an email. I don't want to send it as an attachment. I want it inside the email itself.
I am using AT&T Yahoo! for my internet service provider.
I have tried clicking and dragging various different save files (GIF, JPEG, HTML, etc.) into the body of the email. I have also tried opening the various Adobe files and copying and pasting into the body. Neither method seems to work.
Is there a certain kind of save file that will drop or paste into an email? Or am I using the wrong technique to do so?

To be similarly blunt, Mlenium, Bob may be more legitimately assuming his recipients
do receive HTML formatted email than you are in assuming they don't. His intended recipients may be controlled: inside a workgroup, a company, or a family, for example.
Bob may have pre-arranged with an illustration client to allow HTML email, so they can quickly communicate about details of a project underway.
It's one of the most common uses for a decent screenshot utility. (I use and recommend TechSmith SnagIt.) One press of the assigned hot key, a swipe of the cursor, and a Paste command captures just the datafield, illustration or photo detail, menu, or legacy command-line screen needed to convey. My entire workgroup uses the technique every day to quickly communicate about everything from hot issues to on-the-fly how-to instructions.
Bob, if it's only an occasional need and you don't have and don't care to buy a region-capable screenshot utility, you can open the AI file (assuming it's saved with PDF compatibility) or a PDF version of it with Reader and use its Snapshot tool (which is a screenshot tool that only works within Reader).
(It's pretty lame that after all these years, Windows still does not include a region-select screenshot command. Equally lame that Windows still can print the content of a Windows Explorer window. SnagIt also allows you to capture the content of an Explorer window as text--even as tab-delimited text that you can then paste into a spreadsheet--or an email.)

Lately, I'm unable to paste any image into the body of any email I compose. I did not have this issue before today. Please help.

Could this issue with not being able to copy and paste any image within the email body, be virus or malware related?
Though I don't think I have any virus problems. Also I have all the latest updates for Thunderbird.
I read some suggestions posted elsewhere and tried those but none of these worked :
DID NOT WORK #1 :
(If your Thunderbird email message is displaying strange-looking code (tags) after each link, images are missing (it looks like images have been stripped out), and the font appears different, or bold, then you’ve most likely changed the message body view inadvertently. To switch it back, simply:
Browse to View -> Message Body As -> and select Original HTML.)
DID NOT WORK #2 :
Email message looks fine, but doesn’t contain images
If the rest of your Thunderbird email message looks okay, but is missing images, or they appear to have been stripped out, it’s very possible that you’ve changed a setting that won’t let attachments (ie. pictures) appear inline (within the message body). To change this back, simply:
Browse to View -> and select Display Attachments Inline. )
DID NOT WORK #3 :
If you made the above changes to your Thunderbird settings and images still aren’t appearing in some of your messages, it may be that Thunderbird is blocking them because it thinks they are spam. To adjust your privacy settings and prevent the images from being stripped out, or not displaying at all (ie. being blocked), simply:
Click on the button to the above right of the email message asking you whether you would like to load images.
If the email message is from a trusted sender, you can click the link above the message specifying you would always like to load images in messages from this particular sender.
DID NOT WORK #4 :
If you’re still having troubles, or your changes aren’t being saved (ie. next time you open Thunderbird the images won’t display again) you can directly specify the default format Thunderbird should display email messages as in the config editor. To access it, simply:
Browse to Tools -> Options -> Advanced tab -> Config Editor
Search for mail.default_html_action and make sure it is set to 3 (allow original HTML). If you would like messages to open as text only (more secure, but you won’t see images, change the setting to 1).
Could you please suggest what possibly has caused this issue? Thank you for your time.

Thank you for your response.
After searching around for any pointers to my problem, the above fixes I listed were the things that came closest to maybe addressing the issue, that I was able to locate. But since none worked, and as you pointed out, it is now clear they will only help towards viewing sent images rather than helping with inserting any images in the body of the email, which is the problem I suddenly started facing today.
Coming to your suggestion, on opening the Write window, the Insert choice on the menu bar is indeed available. And I had already tried using that, by clicking on the '''Insert ----> Image''' option listed. That opens
up the "Image Properties" box but using that has not resolved the matter either. It results in an image box getting inserted within the email but without the actual image itself.
Plus, normally I am able to use the '''Paste''' function in the Edit menu or through right-click, but today the (Cut/Copy/Paste) functions have gone inactive, thereby disallowing me to use that to place an image within the email.

Can't put image into the body of Yahoo Email.

Although easily done using I.E or Outlook, any attempt to paste an image into the body of a Yahoo Mail results in nothing happening when using Firefox. I do NOT want to use I.E.
This is a major problem. Attachments are no solution. In many industries, including mine, we like to send flyers as images or IN-LINE documents via email.
Will Firefox / Mozilla address this issue?
Is there a solution already?

I have 2 FF windows open. One to view my picture and one with Yahoo mail. If I click and drag the picture into my Yahoo mail body, it works. Can't do copy/paste like in IE.

Suddenly can't paste image into email?

As of a few days ago, I can no longer copy and paste an image into my email body. Was there some upgrade or did I accidentally hit some setting that I need to fix. Really strange?

OK, that was a bit odd.
Initially, it refused to drag-and-drop.
I tried copy-and-paste, which worked. I then repeated drag-and-drop, which worked now.
Insert via the menu also worked.
Are you copy-and-pasting directly into an empty message, or have you already started typing? Some users complain that toolbar functions are greyed out, but then those functions are greyed, deliberately, until there is some text to work with. I wonder if the cursor has to be at a defined insertion point for copy and paste to work. It may need a paragraph to anchor to, and a blank document may not offer a workable anchor point.
It's been mentioned that some aspects of the composition window have been changed; it was suggested that drag and drop of text was new (though I was under the impression it had been there forever! ;-) ) Such changes may affect other actions such as pasting from the clipboard.
So, in a roundabout way, I have to say the functionality is still there (or it is in my installation, at the least) but maybe the trigger conditions have changed.

Can't paste image into email

Since the 4.2 upgrade I can't paste an image in an email!
Anyone figure out why and or how to?

Holding or double tap doesn't work anymore and yes I am able to paste text. In the meantime I have discovered how to paste an image into an email reply.
I used to hold my finger on the image and copy it to the clipboard and then go to the email reply and paste it.
What I have discovered is if I copy the image to the clipboard by holding my finger on the image to get the copy option, that will not work when I try to paste the image to an email reply, but if I use the following method to copy the image it will work.
I open the saved images, tap the arrow in the upper right toolbar, tap the image I want to copy and then tap copy on the left side of the top toolbar, it will paste to the email reply.

Is it possible to paste two images into one layer?

I'm having some issues pasting two images into one layer. Every time I paste the second image, it automatically creates a new layer...is there anyway to prevent that from happening? I'm making an animation on photoshop and I want there to be more than image in some of the frames. Please let me know if you have any suggestions! Thanks!

You can merge the two layers together once they're position. Select the top layer and choose merge down or select both and choose merge layers (from the layers menu).

How do you paste an image into a rectangular marqee forcing it to resize into the marqee?

How do you paste an image into a rectangular marqee forcing it to resize into the marqee?

Not sure this would address your issue, but the Crop Tool works that way: set the width and height, plus resolution, and Crop does everything. You could then paste the result into another file if that completes your process.

Pasting an image into a form

I had wanted to post a reply to a user who also had this problem, but was unable to. Thus, I'd just like to share what I have found to work best for me.
This is concerning pasting an image into a form, not necessarily for pasting an image into a non-form pdf. Also, I am using a Mac, not sure whether the process is the same for PC's.
Firstly, make sure you have saved any image you want to paste into your form as a jpeg.
In Adobe Acrobat Pro (v10.1.3), open the tools panel and select the edit object tool.
Navigate to the page where you wish to paste your image, and right click. Select place image... This will bring up a finder window where you can browse for your image. Select the image you wish to place, and click open. The image will open to its default size, however with the edit object tool still in use, you can scale to your hearts desire!
Once you have finished filling out your form and placing any images, you may save in any format (as pdf, image, etc.) and the document and images should appear as they did when you were editting.

(There's no such thing as Acrobat Reader, I'm guessing you mean just "Reader"...)
You can't insert an image to a text field anyway, it has to be contained inside a button field.
As I said, with Reader it's possible only if:
- Reader XI is used
- The image is in PDF format

Pasting an image into a Gmail email?

I am new to using Safari (hoping to migrate from chrome now I have upgraded to Yosemite). I use Gmail and I want to paste an inline image into an email but it's not allowing me.. does this just not work or is there a work around ? when I copy the image and paste it nothing happens

When using Safari, you will need to save the image as a file and then in gmail when composing a message, click on insert photo, and then you can drag a saved picture in. You have the option to make it an attachment or as an inline image.
Copy and Pasting directly into gmail is only possible using Chrome. This is a gmail limitation. I am not recommending Chrome as personally I have had too many issues with it crashing my Macbook Pro. I am now Chrome free.

Embed image into email (not attachments)

Hi all,
i need to embed images into an HTML table of an email.
Can anyone help me, please?
Sergio

I have done this in a prior application.. Are you building an html style message?
I have attached some ideas for you to try:
define hidden page variable to get the url and location for the images files:
p19_SERVER_STRING
Source or expression:
SELECT owa_util.get_cgi_env('REQUEST_PROTOCOL')||'://'||owa_util.get_cgi_env('HTTP_HOST')||owa_util.get_cgi_env('SCRIPT_NAME')||'/wwv_flow_file_mgr.get_file?p_security_group_id=4398899520272508996&p_fname='
FROM dual;
(Security Group is from YOUR application)!!
Next:
In a After Submit process assemble the emial message:
local variable lvMessage VARCHAR2(7500)
Define message body in html document (Store in local varchar2 variable)
<body>
<p>
<img height="90" hspace="0" src="'|| V('P19_SERVER_STRING')||'srtt_header.png' || '" " width="778" border="0" style="WIDTH: 931px; HEIGHT: 90px">
</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
Send the mseeage after you assemble the required pieces:
HTMLDB_MAIL.SEND(
P_TO => '[email protected]',
P_FROM => '[email protected]',
P_BODY => v_message,
P_BODY_HTML => v_message,
P_SUBJ => 'Your email with an Image');
APEX_MAIL.PUSH_QUEUE;

Downloaded jpg pictures - can't paste cut images into jpg's

I've downloaded some low resolution jpg's from the Web and intended to do some image cuts from photos I took - and to paste those cut images into the low res downloaded pictures. Using Elements 9, I can cut and paste from photo to photo if they are pcitures I took on my camera just find - just can't seem to cut and paste into the downloaded low res images. Cutting from a self took photo and pasting into the low res jpg does create a layer, but it shows up blank. I even took one the jpg's I downlaoded from the Web and scanned it so it might take off any protection that may be comng down with the downloaded jpg. Nothing seems to work. Thoughts?

Try opening a blank canvas in Editor
File à New à Blank File
Set your dimensions and background e.g. white or back
Set resolution for print or web.
Drag your images up from the project bin on to the canvas.

Embedding images into emails?

PC users I know can copy and paste JPEGs into emails so that they are not attachments and are open when recipients open the mail. I have not been able to figure out how to do that on my G4. When I use that method, the graphic appears as an attachment. Anyone know a way? Surely there is one...

Copy pasting web address into emails on iPad

I use to be all to be looking at a web page and select all, copy, and then paste the URL in an email on my iPad. When I do it now when I paste nothing shows up. How can I copy and then paste URL in my email.
Thanks
Rick

Welcome to the discusssions.
Touch a spot in the URL in the browser address bar until you see the magnifying glass (as though you're going to fix a typo). When you let go, you should see the Select All option appear, then after you tap that, copy. It's a bit tricky because the keyboard keeps popping up, but just ignore that.
Then go to your email, hold down where you want to put the URL till you see the magnifying glass, then let go and you should see paste.
