Adding screen shots to comment and work notes fields.

We would like to be able to add screen shots (pasted from clipboard) to Service Now in the Comments and Work notes sections of an incident (task table).  Is there a best practice for this?

I changed the field type to HTLM and it seems to work.  The only challenge I am having so far is the image stays in the field after I save/update.  Is there a way to clear out the field after the form is saved so new comments can be added?

Anyone else using this method to attach screen shots?  Anything I should watch out for?

Thanks so much!!

I know its been a couple of years, thought I'd post incase it was still a requirement. 

A lot of people found this project suited their needs. Simply .XML you can apply to your instance giving you the ability to paste screenshots.

Can this be used on the Interaction form?

Sorry for the slow response. Have a look at the project if you haven't already. They do say you can add it to any table. You'd need to edit the form layout to include the formatter.

One way to do this is open mini connect and paste in there.
