How do I paste internet pictures into an email from my browser?

When I paste the picture into the body of the email, it comes up as a funny icon, not a picture.

Every other Email client works OK except Thunderbird.

I've tried it and it works ok for me with Firefox (using copy image ). The symbol you've mentioned also comes up for a second, but then disapears and the picture then comes up in the e-mail. I do have html e-mails enabled. You may try enabling that Also try different websites.
