Windows 10 laptop, (fully updated), Firefox, (updated), Googlemail, (assume updated).

Attempting to add 'snips' generated by Windows Snip & Sketch in amongst the text of emails.
I must have done this hundreds of times.
Recently, say from mid-December '22 more often than not,
I add the snip to the email, click on send, check the email and the snipped picture turns into a multiline stream of characters.

This morning's example, starting '<img src="data:image/png;base64,iVBOR ...'
ending ' ... GbLYZweLc1ro5A6ypZ++'

Am I doing something wrong, (apart from using Windows/Firefox/Googlemail etc),
or is this a known glitch for emails?

Is the email in plain text format? Are you replying or is it a new email, if replying it could be down to the format of the one sent to you.

Thanks for the reply.
I was sending a new email, no chain, no reply.
'plain text format'?
Googlemail, click on 'Compose' - whatever format I am given.
Is there an option within the settings of either Firefox or Googlemail
where I (now?) have to enable something better than 'plain text format'?
