    I assume you mean on OzBargain? Go to My Account - Files - Upload New File. Then copy the link and paste in a comment or wherever you want.

    See OzBargain 101: Lesson 1: Commenting and Deal Formatting (bold, making tables, creating links, big fonts, ordered lists, etc.) for more info.

      What happened to inline images? I remember they used to be possible before but now it's just a hyperlink?

        I believe we disabled that several years ago as people were attaching giant photos which were breaking the site.

          @tuzii:

          inline images increase bandwidth usage I think

          might not be great for mobile users who have metered data usage and view stuff on smaller displays

          A better option might be to just make it optional and allow people to click an expander [📷+] to view the image inline.
