RE: Professional Tutorial for Post Formatting, both for Beginners and Advanced users.

in #writing8 years ago

Do you know of any way to get an image within a post, that is not the first image, to appear as a thumbnail? I have read through a lot of tutorials, and I've tried experiments when it's late so it doesn't interfere with the busy posting times. But I haven't gotten anything to work. Sometimes it's not the first image that most captures the essence of a post that would work well in a thumbnail. Thanks!

I can't guarantee this, but seems as if the HTML image code is preferred as thumbnail, so putting a basic link first and a link coded in html should place the html image as thumbnail, but again I'm not sure about this and I didn't test it.

Nope. I tried using the markdown code for the first image and HTML for the second. The first image came up. I also tried making the 2nd image the header image by surrounding it with the level 1 header tags, but that didn't work either. It sure would be nice to be able to figure something out! Thanks for giving me something to test.

Your welcome, If I find out how to do it I'll tell you.

Yes and i am trying to write Mathematics with Steem. I wonder how this can be done?

That interests me too.I am studying the very root of mathematics studying ancient greek philosophy of mathematekoi. I have learned a whole new way of looking at math and how mathematics is found through all nature,through all systems .There is a code of the golden ratio and fibonacci that reiterrates fractally through all levels of life. This Steem platform and the blockchain system of the infinte golden ledger with unlimited fractals of itself called blocks is definitely ready fordeep mathematical analysis and analogy

Thanks for giving me something to go on. I'll test it.
I'm glad I saw this post within the 30 day limit, so I could ask a question. Thanks for replying.
