Background image missing in SSRS subscriptions - reporting-services

My report has a background image embedded in it and it is correctly reflecting on the report server but when I run the subscription, the image does not come with the email. What are the additional settings that I would need to do to get this image in the email?

if you look at the properties of the image, is the source external?
if yes, is the url is valid (and accessible) from where you open the email?

Sending out HTML emails via Outlook 2013

I have prepared an HTML for emailing out some information about a product I am working on. It has a few a images pointing to our webservers, even though I added our domain as trusted, when I try to view the email in Outlook 2013, it displays this message:
I get these emails all the time from other people and the message usually says, click to view images, and then the HTML displays properly.
Surely, there must be a setting I can set to change this prompt.
Outlook does not check whether the domain is trusted. You can either make sure the images are embedded (<img src="cid:xyz"> where xyz is the Content-ID MIME header of the image attachment) or you can set a special property on the client side (it can only be set on the client side in Outlook) that lets Outlook view the images.

Link to and display an image on an Access 2013 App view

I am using Access 2013 with our enterprise Office 365 Sharepoint site to create a simple Access App. I'm unsure of all the terminology--the main point is that this is an Access App as opposed to a desktop application. I am wondering if there is a way to display an image on a list view, where the image source is a data field. Here's what I can do so far and where I get stuck:
I can add a picture control. I can set the picture to a permanent URL that displays just fine in the view. However, this is a permanent setting for the view of any record.
I can add a URL field to the table. It's easy to pick the URL in datasheet view, and on list view, it's difficult to change the URL, but clicking on it will pop up the image (or whatever link) in a new tab or window.
I can create a Web Browser Control. I can have this control source be the URL frame. When I look at this view using an IE browser, I get something that looks like an iFrame. However, no matter what URL I try, the content will not load.
More clarification here: Depending on whether I try Flickr or an image hosted on my own OneDrive, I get different errors. One of the errors I get (tyring to use my own OneDrive with publicly shared image) is: "To help protect the security of information you enter into this website, the publisher of this content does not allow it to be displayed in a frame."
More information: If I link to a publicly shared image from Google Drive, then the Web Browser Control does in fact show the image. This is not ideal, and I'd rather be able to dynamically change the link for the Picture Control, as opposed to embedding web content.
This is where I am stuck on two avenues. (A) The Web Browser Control will not show any content (maybe this is a security setting of my institution's Sharepoint 2013?). And (B) I cannot figure out how to dynamically change the URL for the picture control. Option B may be possible with a macro, but macros in Access Apps are different than desktop version and much more limited in capability. And I'm not good at either set of macros. Thanks for any ideas!

using linked images in reporting services report?

We have a location on our intranet that contains various versions of our logo. Rather than embedding an image in my reports I want to http link to the appropriate image on our intranet.
Is this possible?
TIA

Yes, it's possible.
It is necessary that in the options when adding image choose "External" for the "Select Image Source" and simply copying the link of image in the textbox "Use this image"

ensuring HTML emails always show images

I have an email sent out in in my application, and in the HTML of that email, i have an <img> tag which is an image and a link.
The problem is that in most cases the image doesn't load in emails, unless you enable the viewing of embedded images.
That image is an important part of the email. Is there any way I can replace the image tag with something else which always loads in emails? The desire is that users don't have to explicitly click on show pictures to see it.
Absolutely... you can embed the image as an attachment, and then use the CID header in the mail MIME to reference it (instead of a URL to a web resource)
There is no way to guarantee that an image will be displayed without explicit permission of the user. That would circumvent the whole concept if it were possible. The idea is to protect the user from exposure to undesirable content. In the event you were to find some hack way around it, it would be considered just that, and could get you blacklisted once the hack is discovered.
Is the img tag just a reference to an external image that's hosted somewhere? You could try adding it to the email as an embedded resource and see if that helps. Some mail clients may still ask permission before displaying it, though. But it should get more of the target audience.

Getting an image from a header

I have a SSRS 2005 rdl file, which contains a header section. The header section has a logo image.
I need to know where in the rdl file is the logo image stored?
The logo is to be used for other reports.
Thanks

It depends on how the author created the report. You can have 1 of 4 methods to store images for use in a report:
Embedded - The report is embedded in the actual report file
Project - The image is stored in the Report project and shared across the reports within the project
Database - the image is stored in a db
Web - The image is linked from a location on the web
If it is embedded, your rdl will include an element with the actual file contents inside of the element.
If it is a Project image, it will be inside of an tag.
There will be corresponding tags for DataBase and Web images as well, although I have never dealt with them.
