Your Gmail email images now displayed automatically

“Do your shoulders feel lighter?
They should if you're a Gmail user, since Google just lifted from users what one assumes must have been the heavy burden of having to choose whether to display images in email.
You were relieved of this choice as of Friday, when Google announced that Gmail users will now see images automatically.
Automatic image viewing for desktops was enabled on Friday, and we'll see it on Android and iOS apps in early 2014.” […]
“But Google could have given their users all that good stuff without taking away their ability to choose whether they want to see images or not.

Luckily, Gmail users can disable automatic image viewing - here's how:
1. Open Gmail.
2. Click the gear icon in the top right.
3. Select Settings.
4. Stay in the General tab.
5. Scroll down to the Images section.
6. Choose "Ask before displaying external images".
7. Click Save Changes at the bottom of the page.”
