Adding images

Pete Bachant edited this page Feb 6, 2016 · 2 revisions

If the image is hosted elsewhere (for example, Imgur) and you have the URL, an image can be added to a page with Markdown syntax:

![Image description](http://i.imgur.com/RrcmAjm.jpg)

or HTML:

<img alt="Image description" src="http://i.imgur.com/RrcmAjm.jpg">

Uploading to GitHub

To upload an image to GitHub:

  1. Create an issue in the issue tracker, e.g., "Add images to home page of wiki."
  2. Drag and drop or copy/paste the image into the issue reporting text field. The image will automatically be uploaded and Markdown syntax will appear in the text box. Copy/paste this into the wiki text editor.
