Gratar Image based on email address
From:Rick Strahl

You cannot embed images from your local disk, since the email recipient won't have a file there. THe file needs to be in a public location. As I mentioned this is a terrible idea these days, because most mail clients by default block any external links liek images or CSS or Script in emails - you have to explicitly approve viewing content by clicking ok.

Alternately you can embed the image into the email message using the code I linked in my last response using Alternative Views.

Please below the text of my codes for embedding an image. It still do not work:


text to lcHTM TEXTMERGE NOSHOW
<html>
<h1></h1>
<hr/>
<head>
<h2></h2><br><br>
<h2>Dear <i></i></h2>
</head>
<body>
<h3>We wish to inform you that a transaction occurred on your account with us.</h3>
<h3>The details of this transaction are shown below:</h3><br>

You can embed external images just by using a URL in your message.

<imgsrc="http://mysite.com/smiley.gif"alt="Smiley face"height="42"width="42">

Problem with that is that images that are embedded like this are usually blocked by the email client.

You can also use embedded resources to do this, but only in .NET mode.

Please find below a sample of the command:
