I have a long email come into my GMail, often a newsletter, I click the Display images below link to see all the pictures, I read through it to the bottom, then see this:

[Message clipped]  View entire message

So I click the View Entire Message link, and there are no pictures, and no button to let me switch image viewing back on again?

I get this particularly on HTML newsletters, like the Playstation newsletter (where it does ruin it because most of the newsletter is pictures) or Meetup.com's weekly info letter (where it's not so bad as it's mainly text content).

I've just looked at the PS newsletter which I got yesterday and images do appear to be showing when I click on "View entire message" – Thomas McDonald Jul 10 '10 at 13:24
That's odd, I'm looking at the PS message I got yesterday too, and I don't see images after clicking "View entire message". Could it be a GMail version thing? I'm on Google Apps which always seems to be a version behind main GMail? – GAThrawn Jul 10 '10 at 14:39

Ok, after a bit of playing around and the news that it should be possible, I've got it working. What's is strange because Display images below setting seems to stick even if you leave that mail and go back quite a while later, but never in the Entire message view.

Yet it seems that if you select Always display images from xxx then all images appear in the Entire message, which is what I was after.
