Courses Plus Student 13,077 PointsThis is what you want, I found this earlier today on stack overflow.
LayoutInflater inflater = getLayoutInflater();
View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.cust_toast_layout1(ViewGroup) findViewById(R.id.relativeLayout1));
Toast toast = new Toast(this);
toast.setView(view);
toast.show();
You just need to customize the layout file.

Make .xml layout file with any elements you want. In code, create view by inflating layout, as Eric posted.
You are using inflate(int, ViewGroup) method, where first parameter is reference to a layout file, and the second is reference to a viewGroup that you will be showing in toast. So your viewGroup must have @+id tag

8,211 PointsIt is a good practice and makes you a better programming to always know how to read and understand the API classes. If you see this link: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/Toast.html#Toast(android.content.Context)
I didn't see any method in the Toast class that let's you add ImageView. The only method that is close you can try is setView(View view). But I think this represents the Toast View itself. Update us, if you figured it out -)
