I was confused by Fastpages’ instruction on how to add a photo to a post. This is how I do it when writing a post in markdown:

  1. Add the image to the “/images/” folder in your fastpages blog directory and push the file to GitHub (note - don’t put the image in the “/copies_from_nb/” subfolder within the “/images/” folder)
  2. Navigate to the blog images folder on GitHub and open the image
  3. Right-click on the image and select “copy image address”
  4. Insert the image address into the blog post using either markdown or html syntax:


Markdown style

![image](https://github.com/robbdunlap/robbo_and_the_realers/blob/master/images/uaf.png?raw=true)


HTML style

<img src="https://github.com/robbdunlap/robbo_and_the_realers/blob/master/images/uaf.png?raw=true)">


Interstingly, if you paste the link to the image in a browser window then it will convert the link slightly when the image displays. You can also use the resultant html address to display the image in a post.
