Thank you very much for this!! About a week or two after I started I discovered the markdown, but wasn't fully sure how to use it. From the start of my SteemIt adventures I wanted to add bold texts and other things on my post, but didn't know how it was done, then found markdown, but it was a dead issue. I never went to learning how to use it, and I don't need now thanks to you and this post! Now I can get with making my posts a bit fancy and stick out more:)
To insert pictures you have to put a url link? You can upload them like you can outside of markdown?
