You do not need to upload your image into the Benchmark Email image gallery in order to use it in your campaigns, although we do recommend using the image gallery when possible. To use a photo stored outside of Benchmark Email, you will need to get the image URL (web address), which almost always ends with JPG, GIF, PNG or BMP. Keep in mind that the image URL does not usually match the web address of the page where the image appears.

To get the URL for the online image you'd like to use in Benchmark Email:

For Firefox:

1. Open a browser window and go to the page containing the image you want to use in Benchmark Email.
2. Move your mouse over the image and right-click the mouse button.
3. Select Copy Image Location or View Image Info.
