Images Inside of Handouts etc

It is possible to have more than one image inside of handouts? I know that we can put them as a header at the top, but is there a way to put them inside the actual written content as well?
Yes, but only with a little bit of trickery. Go to the games forum, open a new post, and post the image there. Don't click Submit, but now select the picture(s) there and copy them with Ctrl-C and then paste them into the notes section of the handout/character sheet with Ctrl-V.

Just to add to Quatar's great tip; I believe you can do the same trick without the forums by using the header image area of the handout.

I am being dense, sorry!

I am being dense, sorry! There is this forum that you could use, but the game forum is on the main page for a specific game. Look for the 'Recent Game Discussion] section and the button [+Post New Topic]

Ctrl-C does not work as you can't actually select the picture in the header, but right-clicking it and selecting "Copy Image" works! Thanks for that, I didn't know that!

Just for clarity; To insert an image(s) into the text areas of your handouts and journal bio's; Insert an image into the journal bio and handout image header as normal.   Copy the header image(right-click-Copy image) and  Paste (right-click-Paste or CTRL+V) into the text area of your handout or journal bio & info and/or gm notes.   If you want to insert more images, insert a new image into the image header box and copy/paste.  Rinse and repeat as needed. bonus : You can also copy images(right-click-Copy image) from any web page to paste into your handouts/journals. Know that doing so will also add the image to your image library.  bonus2 : You can also (right-click-Copy image address) on web page images and paste the URL into the "Chose a file" browse window input field, click "Open" to upload. This will upload the image to your image library and insert the image into your handout/journal header image box.  This trick can also be used to import images into your image library.
