The simplest solution is to utilize the clipboard. However, this method has
the disadvantage of clearing the clipboard's content:

\\\
Dim img As Image = Image.FromFile("C:\camera.bmp")
Clipboard.SetDataObject(img)
RichTextBox1.Paste()
///

Preserving the clipboard content:

\\\
Dim ClipboardContent As Image = _
DirectCast( _
Clipboard.GetDataObject().GetData(DataFormats.Bitmap), _
Image _
)
Dim img As Image = Image.FromFile("C:\WINDOWS\Angler.bmp")
Clipboard.SetDataObject(img)
RichTextBox1.Paste()
If Not ClipboardContent Is Nothing Then
Clipboard.SetDataObject(ClipboardContent, True)
ClipboardContent.Dispose()
End If
img.Dispose()
///

More advanced solution:
