Images and Attachments

---

Let.ter doesn’t support sending email attachments, but that doesn’t mean you can’t send files along with your emails. Instead, you’ll just need to share them with your favorite file sharing tool, then paste the link to your file in your email.

There’s a ton of tools that’d work great, but our favorites are Droplr and CloudApp, followed by Dropbox. You can copy a public link to any file in your Dropbox folder and share it in an email — a great way to send larger files and files you’ve already saved in your Dropbox account. But for quick file sharing, Droplr and CloudApp are the easiest. Both offer simple menubar tools for uploading files, and offer free accounts that let you upload up to 10 files that are each up to 25Mb per day, with pro accounts for extra features. With either one, once you’ve installed the app you just drag your file to its menubar icon, and seconds later you’ll have a link to your file in your clipboard, ready to paste into your email. It’s that simple — and far faster than sending an email with a large attachment.

Add Pictures to Your Emails

Then, the same way, you can embed images in your Let.ter emails. All you’ll need to do is upload your photo online, or copy a link to the picture from your browser, and add it in Markdown like this: ![picture name](http://linktopicture.com/picture.jpg/). If you upload your picture with Droplr, it’s even easier: just paste your link into your email, and add a + after the address.

Now, when you preview your email, you’ll see the full picture in Let.ter before you send the message, and your recipient will get a beautifully formatted email with your picture embedded in it.
