Introduction

When I made my first post, I couldn't actually find an answer on how to select an image as a the blog's thumbnail. Or in other words the image that people see when they are scrolling through the New, Hot, Trending or Promoted sub sections. So I made this to save you some time.

After searching for a bit I realised that it automatically picks the first image on your post as the main post image. So in order to do that just insert your desired image- either by uploding from your device or through sharing a link, at the top of the post before everything else.
