How to add images to my steem article?

Hey everyone!

I am fairly new to the steem platform. It would be really helpful if some of you folks could tell me how to add images using the steem editor in my articles.

Thanks in advance

Depends,do you have the menu ? If you do then just click on portait,if you don't just copy paste the link.

To add images click the image icon in your text editor. Use a free service to host your images such as www.imgurl.com. This service will supply you with a link to use.

cant i just paste an image? like we do in microsoft word?

Steemit Blockchain does not record images, only text. This is the reason you can't "host your images" in the Steem Platform. You have to upload your images to a free service and simply insert the Direct Link to your image in your post. This free service http://imgur.com (sorry, I made a typo in my previous comment) is very easy to use. You can also edit your images, resize, etc. Of course there are more free services to host images.

I hope it helps
