You can add an image to a Talk message using standard html image coding.

<img src=SOURCE LINK TO IMAGE HERE alt="ALTERNATE DESCRIPTION OF IMAGE">

For example:

<img src=https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:1024/1*OBbcpPhwo5MzDviq7XrNMQ.jpeg alt=">Hello world!_">

Will make the following image:



You can put in width and height measurements to change the size:

<img src=https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:1024/1*OBbcpPhwo5MzDviq7XrNMQ.jpeg height=100 alt=">Hello world!_">

Changes the height to 100 pixels and scales the image to fit:



Alternate descriptions are important for users who are blind, internet connections that do not load the image in time, or if the source of the image gets removed or is blocked for some reason.

>1 Lolipoprock: ThankYouThankYouThankYou for posting this! It's been confusing to me, too, but it hadn't yet risen to the level of "things I can't stand not knowing about so I'd better ask"!

Thanks also to @GraceCollection and @bnielsen for their answers 😁
