    Try uploading the image without text. If you use text it will just create a link. If you don’t enter text, it will display the picture, as long as it’s not too large of a file.

      🤔 yeah I keep getting file too large errors - perhaps it’s the instance I’m using?

        Maybe, I didn’t try on .ee but can you even do a tiny 10kB .jpg?

            I can confirm it does not work with animated gifs or large files, and you also can’t link to an image – you must use the image upload button so it’s hosted on your instance. Here’s an example of the code.
