I've been seeing a lot of posts lately that have no images with their blogs. Images are very important to attract people to read and upvote your blogs. So, I wanted to share with you a super easy way to do it.
First, I won't be sharing with you how to make an image, but I may share ways later on how to do that. So, for this lets assume you have an image ready.
- You will want to go to this website: sli.mg
You'll see this screen.
As you can see all you do is drag and drop your images, or even the url to an image you see online.
- Hit upload image(s) and you'll get something like this (I'm using my screen shots as an example)
- Where you see "Direct URL" you copy that link and all you do is cut and paste that into your Steemit where you are submitting a story.
That's it! You should see your image(s).
Pretty easy process. There's a lot more options there too, so it's not just this easy method.
If you have any questions feel free to comment below.

So what are the advantages of this site over something like Imgur?

Imgur is known to censor and be anti-free speech. SLiMG is pro free speech and will not censor.

Does anyone have an idea when this function will integrated in steemit? I think this would make the platform easier to use for new users and would lower the barrier for new users to post great content.

I don't know for sure, but since this site is based off blockchain tech that might not be possible. So, it kind of has to be this way for awhile.
I've never used this (I'm a coder), but this might be an option people can use. You install it on your Chrome and it makes an editor... might work with Brave too:
