How would I include a GIF in my email?

[jacatone]

I often see amusing GIF's in email, forums and web sites and save them. I use Juno web based mail and was wondering if I could include some of these GIF's in my emails? Or would I have to have a stand alone email client like Outlook to do it? Thanks.

Can you attach word documents or other files to emails? If you can then you can attach images that way. You could set up a free webhosting account (one that supports hot linking) and put a image into the email that way, or as you said you could use a program like Outhouse, Peagasus, Thunderbird etc to do it. I would recomend going the mail client path, since they are a lot more powerful than webmail, IMO, but it is not the only option.
