<?php

//variables

$to = //your email address
$subject = //subject
$headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n".
"Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\r\n".
"From: Whoever";

$message = "
<html>
<body>
<img src=\"http://www.yoursite.com/yourimage.jpg\"border=\"0\" alt=\"\">
</body>
</html>
";

//Mail Function

mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers);
echo "Your picture has been sent!";

?>

Hope that helps, if not, sorry.:) :)

It is possible, but it's a little complex. You must be using MIME email. You can then send the boundary followed by the headers:
Content-Type: image/gif
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
Content-ID: <part2.04060903.01030906>This is followed by two CRLFs, the image in base64_encode (http://www.php.net/base64-encode)()ed format, another CRLF, then the boundary. You can then reference the image by its Content-ID, like so:
<img
src="cid:part2.04060903.01030906">

Thanks for the answer!!!

Thanks viper102464 ...but that write into the email message the url to the image ...and when you open the email they ask you if you want to see the picture or not ....but if you do it like Tway said then you will see the image widout asking you if you want to see the picture or not.

Thanks Twey!!! ...that is what i needed! ;)
THANKS A LOOOTTT!!!
