Want to add a picture into the body of an email but the picture isn't showing up? You may need to use the "Insert picture" option that both Outlook and Gmail have. In Outlook , when writing a new email, click on the "Insert" tab, then select "Pictures". This will open the pictures saved on your computer and you can select the one you want. In Gmail , when writing a new email, click the picture icon at the bottom of the email. Then click "Upload". Here you can drag photos over or click "Select files from your device" to open the list of pictures saved on your computer and select the one you want.
