I need help adding body photos on DEV. Is there a certain format that the photo needs to be? Any help would be appreciated.

    You can link an image in the body of your post using Markdown syntax:

    ![alt-text](image-link)

    For example:

    ![example image](https://t3.ftcdn.net/jpg/00/92/53/56/240_F_92535664_IvFsQeHjBzfE6sD4VHdO8u5OHUSc6yHF.jpg)

    makes:

      What if it is from your computer though?

        You'll need to upload it to an image host first, like imgur, I don't think there's a direct media upload for those - just the cover image.

          You can use uploader button to upload images from you computer, then you get URL which you can use for markdown img tag

              What do you mean by uploader button?

                The button which says "images" in the bottom of the page ("write a post" page), like on the screenshot above
