Add Image to GitHub Readme.md from Google Drive - github

I have the image in Drive, How could it be added to the Readme.md so as to display the image in readme.
I had tried with the shared link, but it isn't working.

For example, I have a.jpg on the google drive.
Right click the image and click Share...
Click Advanced and change the Who can access option to Public on the web - Anyone on the Internet
Copy the link to share and you will have something like
https://drive.google.com/file/d/<FILE_ID>/view?usp=sharing
Copy the <FILE_ID> to make a link like this:
https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=<FILE_ID>
Insert image in Markdown as ususal using the link from step 4. For example:
![image](https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=<FILE_ID>)
Example: I have this octocat image in google, and its file id is 1913oZeBZPBNiUuk8gu3ZSbLBA2l_VQtG. You can try ![image](https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1913oZeBZPBNiUuk8gu3ZSbLBA2l_VQtG) in your markdown file or even in this answer.
Hope this helps.

How to insert an Image in a github-flavoured markdown format and be able to adjust its size
Upload the image image.jpg to your Google Drive
Click the get link button at the top right corner
Change the permission type to Anyone with the link
Copy (to clipboard) only the file ID <FILEID> from the full link as shown (highlighted in blue) and click Done. At the time of writing the shareable link takes the form:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/``/view?usp=sharing
Insert Image in markdown using the copied file id <FILEID> and anchor tag as shown:
<a href="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=<FILEID>"><img src="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=<FILEID>" style="width: 650px; max-width: 100%; height: auto" title="Click to enlarge picture" />
Note that the brackets '<' and '>' are not to be present with the file ID.
The size of the image can be adjusted in the style attribute by adjusting the width and the height as needed. Clicking the rendered image will open it to its original size

How to add an image to a pdf using Capacitor pdf-generator plugin

I’m using capacitor pdf-generator plugin to create a pdf. I managed to do so as long as the html code is limited to non image tag, code in which I inject some dynamic data by nesting variable using ${ }.
Now, my aim is to bind the src attribute of an ```img`` tag to a variable so that I can change the logo displayed in the created PDF.
Where I fail: what appears on the PDF is a white space with dashed borders (check picture attached). So I guess that the path must be correct because if not it would show the missing icon (issue I went through before I could format correctly the path).
Anyone who already had that trouble?
Finally bypassed this issue by storing the base64 data when selecting a logo and using it directly in the img tag.
<img src="data:image/png;base64,${base64data} " />
You can convert the images to base64 here https://www.base64-image.de/
then add the codes directly to your image tag

How to resize an image with clickable link in README.md file?

I have been trying to add a link to one of the YouTube videos in the README.md file. So, first I took a screenshot of the video at a specific timestamp, put it in the local directory, and then used the following syntax:
[![ALT TEXT] (image/screenshot path)] (https://youtu.be/video_id "video text")
But as the size of the screenshot is a little big (as big as my laptop screen), using the above syntax takes a lot of space in the output! I don't want that. I want to control the size of the screenshot/image. How can I do that?
I found different answers on adding an image with a clickable link; resize an image in readme; but I couldn't find any answer addressesing both the issues. (Sorry if such answer already exists)
Thanks a lot in advance :)
You can include raw HTML in your Markdown document, so just use standard HTML <a> and <img> tag with width and height atttributes:
<img src="path/to/img.png" width="xxx" height="yyy">
This will render correctly on github and elsewhere.

Add image with link in Github's README.md?

How to add an image that is also a link to an external page on Github's README.md?
Adding a markdown to display an image is pretty simple (answer at Add images to README.md on GitHub). Adding a link is also pretty simple (GitHub relative link in Markdown file), but it seems there's is no way to add an image that is also a link to an external site.
<img src="RELATIVE_PATH_TO_IMAGE></img>
Try simply the syntax:
[![name](link to image on GH)](link to your URL)
That will wrap the image as a link
Some additional syntax mixing html and markdown, giving you more flexibility in adjusting how image is displayed.
Assuming you have repo structure as follows (it just refers to relative link used in syntax below):
example repo structure
you can use
[<img alt="alt_text" width="40px" src="images/image.PNG" />](https://www.google.com/)
Structure:
[![name](link to image on GH)](link to your URL)
Example:
![image search api](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/110724391/184472398-c590b47c-e1f2-41f8-87e6-2a1f68e8850d.png)[(Youtube)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3HIr0imLgxM)
The people who wrote the previous answers were overcomplicating it. This works in Markdown+HTML5 and is easy to understand when looking at the source code.
The code: [<img src="img/myImage.png">](http://example.com/),
where img/myImage.png should be replaced by the relative path to your image, and http://example.com/ should be replaced by the link you want to visit when the image is clicked.

Big gif from a third party site does not show in the README.md of github?

I want to show a gif in a README.md of github.
And it works fine when the target gif is small with:
<img src="targetGifUrl" width="400">
but when the gif is big, it is not showing as expected, take this gif as an example. When I add it into README.md, it just shows:
and after clicking, it shows a website with the tip
Content length exceeded
As the gif is from a third site, I can not change its size.
So, is it possible to show this big gif without saving and resizing it?
It looks like someone else had this issue before,
When I open this link in Firefox, I only get the text "Content length exceeded".
and here is the commit that fixed it.
Add gif locally
-![Sample Gif](http://i.imgur.com/______.gif)
+<img src="/art/sample.gif?raw=true" width="200px">
Looks like all you have to do is save the gif and put it in your repository, no need to resize it, just link to the version in your repository. Notice how the width is specified and raw=true is an included parameter.
Put Gif files in the local directory on your git repo. Then call it in readme file.
For example, If you just created a folder called demo in the root directory and put demo.gif inside it. Then you can call that in your readme file like this.
![Demo File](https://github.com/username/repo-name/blob/master/demo/demo.gif)
Eg:
![Screenshot](https://github.com/codemaker2015/React-native-map-view/blob/master/demo/demo.gif)

Tinymce - Convert image url to html image url

This is question about tinymce... Current image editor is slow for because it demands opening popup for every new picture I want to add. I have my own external image gallery where each image contains it's url so copy-paste of url's is very easy and fast...
I would like to have button similar to Bold that does following:
To editor I paste url of image (for example: www.site.com/image.jpg) and when i select this url and click on my new button it converts image url to <img src='www.site.com/image.jpg'> and shows image in editor.
I searched plugins and found nothing similar to this.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!
Ilija
solved!
In documentation there is example how to manipulate text in editor from external commands... end even set them as button
