They were inlined into the HTML part only rather than attached as a
separate MIME part with an inline disposition.

As a result, a number of readers will not be able to see them (for
example, I had to switch my default viewing modes around after being
made aware by Thomas that there was supposed to be an included graphic)
and the list archives are not likely to offer them either since they
tend to trash the HTML parts.

So your method of attachment is not likely to work well for a lot of
purposes (probably the only worse way would be to make it a background
image of the mail).  I would strongly suggest that you try to figure out
one that would be more likely to work with the bulk of readers.
