Embedding a hyperlink in an image to use in email.

I have figured out how in photoshop to use the slice tool and put a hyperlink in the image and then save to web and with images and links.

Images cannot contain a hyperlink.

Save for Web (legacy) was created back in the Dark Ages when we had ImageReady and webpages were created (mostly) by hand-typing html code. What the Slice tool does when you Save for Web (legacy) and include links is to write a few lines of html code in plain text, which can then be copied and pasted into the rest of your html. The code is what creates the hyperlink.

If you are using Intuit MailChimp, here is their help page for creating hyperlinks with their app:

Image is visible part, hyperlink code is on page in the background. Image itself does not contain hyperlink, page does. You must ensure that page you are sending contains hyperlink code. Probably you can not edit email so insert image then select it and finally click on Hyperlink icon then paste destination URL.

What email or email client do you use?  Try Google including your email provider and 'add hyperlink to image'

You can save 'Interactive' PDF files from InDesign which can consist of multi page magazine type documents with linked images.
