Winter After a Poor Harvest

Do you know why this is happening?

It's just a choice Steemit is making as far as how and what links display on their platform. It's up to the platform to decide what will display from a link. For example, when I post Steemit links on the Minds.com platform, the source image shows up on Minds.com automatically, so basically Steemit is trying to make sure that it's better for me if I post on Steemit and share on Minds.com rather than the other way around which will leave me with a text-only share unless I put up my own image on Steemit, which might seem like no big deal, but if it's not my post then I might not have the right to post the image myself and probably won't know for sure whether I do or not.

You have to do it like this:

<a href="https://www.minds.com/media/839618750158573568"><img src="https://gateway.ipfs.io/ipfs/QmTw5stGexp26hXGFCwqUhFP9QL5s4FDh3MFcA7Joje8rx"></a>

Or like this:

The syntaxes are the following:

• Insert image:
  ![](link to image)
  or
  <img src="link to image">
• Link:
  [text to link](the link itself)
  or
  <a href="link">text to link</a>
• Image that is a link:
  [![](link to image)](link)
  or
  <a href="link"><img src="link to image"></a>

It looks complicated but it's pretty straight-forward once you understand it. You can also add another link below the image like

<a href="Link to Minds post">View in Minds.com</a>

Result:

View more on Minds.com

It's bigger because I also added <h3>text</h3>, which is the code for a size-3 title.

Thanks CS. Working on absorbing this massively complicated scripting language. Sorry.

You seem to have added a <code> tag. You should remove that in order for it to work properly. :) Just copy this and paste it.

<a href="Link to Minds post">View more on Minds.com</a>

I was pasting it in w/o going into raw HTML mode so it was inserting spaces I think.

This by itself works:

Now how a normal person whose name doesn't begin with "Crypto" is supposed to know that...

I don't see where you find that address. The one I see in my bar for that blog post reads - https://www.minds.com/media/839618750158573568.

I get this for the poet voice post:

h ttps://www.atlasobscura.com/articles/cultural-analysis-poet-voice

but where do I go to find the ipfs one?
