Cool @clemdane, nice reply and like your picture. May I ask how did you do that, embedding the pictures in the text? I don't see any tool or icon to do that. Many thanks in advance.

Oh it didn't take any special talent, more of an accident how it came out. I just write for a while and then I think of a keyword that it would be cool to have a picture for. Then I go look for a picture from the internet (I try to find copyright free but sometimes I just grab something.) I save it to my desktop.
Then when I'm composing a post where it says "Insert images by dragging & dropping, pasting from the clipboard, or by selecting them" I click on the hyperlinked "selecting them" and attach the right photo. The Steemit photo link will appear after what I wrote.
To see how it's going to look you scroll down to the preview screen and you can see how the photo interacts with the text. I haven't made that much effort to get it to look perfect. Just if I notice a few words wrapping around the photo awkwardly in a way that makes it hard to read I usually edit the text down so that the photo comes at a more natural break in the text. You can experiment with leaving a blank line between the text and the photo or not - look down at the preview window and you can see how it looks with and without the space.
That's basically it. There are people who embed their photos so perfectly it looks like a magazine. I just eyeball it ;-)
Nice one, thank you for the info and moving forward. Now I found a program to make cool collages and much more; IPICCI, Check it out and have fun.
Very cool - will go check it out!
You just drag it into the text box from your files @frankhappa :)
TEST
there you go, it worked
