RE: [Guide] How to put images into your Steemit posts (Super Simple Version!)

in #steem8 years ago

Hi @alexbeyman.

Just so you know there are a number of accepted syntaxes for including images. One of them is even easier. When you copy the markdown link and paste something that looks like [Imgur](http://i.imgur.com/abcd) rather than removing the brackets just add an exclamation mark before them so you get ![Imgur](http://i.imgur.com/abcd)

[description](url) means show a link with a description. ![description](url) means show a picture with a description

you can also use <img src="url" width="100px" height="100px"> and this allows you to specify the dimensions of your picture. Add align="left" to make the text wrap around it on the right and vice-versa.

Enjoy

I stand corrected regarding the width and height specifications. Markdown usually allows it but Steemit doesn't seem to
