Hi

Are the images been generated in the tmp directory? If i am
reading you correctly they are. Now all you need to do is
define where they are in your img tag in your template file
and it should work.

Most people copy and paste pieces of their files to their
email and send that.

Also its a good idea to send all your emails to the list
rather than just the person who is helping, so the others
can comment also.

Cheers
