You're welcome!

To do a link with an image (rather than words) do this:

[![TITLE of IMAGE](IMAGE LINK)](CLICKTHROUGH LINK)

Do you see what I did there?
An image is:
![TITLE of IMAGE](IMAGE LINK)

So I took that entire thing and made it the TITLE (so I put brackets [] around the entire code), and added the link to CLICKTHROUGH at the end in parenthesis ().

Example:

This

[![Coffee](https://i.imgur.com/V6z4Rj0.png)](https://steemit.com/vlog/@carrieallen/coffee-talk-with-carrie-e8-missing-ny-skier-ends-up-in-california)

will render like this

Coffee

And have a clickable link (to my recent Coffee Talk with Carrie Episode). 😎

If English isn't your first language- You're doing GREAT! I'm always impressed when I find this out about people. I only (kinda now) speak Sign Language... but is that really speaking? 🤔

Carrie thanks for this explanation! You are great! I'll keep this near for next post!

I used to think that sign language was universal, then someone told me that there are different signs for every language...

Cheers and nice to meet you!

Sign language IS pretty universal. The only differences are mostly regarding the order in which they are shown to produce thoughts.

I learned SEE (Sign Exact English) and ASL (American Sign Language). SEE was so when teaching children we could teach sentence structure for writing and reading. However, it's nearly impossible to use SEE all the time. Your hands and fingers would get so exhausted!

And ASL is the more useful conversation language. It's literally shaping your thoughts into being. This makes the most sense to me. I used to dream in sign language as a kid, so when I decided to take it in college it was just THERE. I was like a savant.

Oh! And I knew a tiny bit of French and Spanish at the time and looked in the French and Spanish versions of sign. VERY similar.

Sorry for the long explanation... that you didn't ask for. LOL!

Hey! Thanks for this info! It pretty much clarifies my ideas about Sign Language.

It is always welcome to learn something new!

Thanks!
