how to insert image in deck description

General forum

Posted on April 18, 2018, 10:10 p.m. by Nordlys

Hi there, i'm ashamed to ask such a silly question, but I can't find my way out of this.

I've tried using the "insert image" button but nope. Also tried common html but nothing happens.

Could it be that the image has to be of a certain width? or to have a maximum width? Maybe the image size?

The image i'm trying to insert is a header (1000px width, 267px heigh, 72dpi). It's a .png with transparent background.

Could it be that maybe tappedout disabled the image sharing in deck's descrpitions?

This is the URL i'm trying to use to insert the image: https://image.ibb.co/ijGVnS/Ayli_the_Eternal_Bitch_art_header.png

<img src="https://image.ibb.co/ijGVnS/Ayli_the_Eternal_Bitch_art_header.png" width="100%" />

In the deck editor paste this HTML code in the description box. Setting the width of the image to 100% means the image will scale with the size of the browser window. It will fit inside of the area where the description of your deck goes and won't expand beyond the area of the description.

If you want additional help let me know.

Thanks for answering, but it doesn't seem to work. I really don't know what's the reason behind it, as a web designer myself i'm getting very frustrated by not being able to solve this problem.

I've also tried with .jpg format instead of .png , I've tried reducing it's file size to 50kb , tried with images that other users managed to insert but I can't insert them.

I've even tried using a different browser (firefox, explorer and chrome) just in case it was the problem, but nope.

Sorry this isn't working for you.

Using that img HTML code I can add your image to this comment. Do you see it below?

Indeed, I cannot it even make it work here as a comment.

@multimedia , are you premium member or something like it? It's the only explaination I can think of.

And, thank you both for taking the time to answer, really apretiate it. I hope we can get to the bottom of this problem.

Yes, I'm a member, been here for 3 years. Not sure if this means premium or not, but I'm a member. Are you not a member... If you're not a member then you can't add HTML to deck descriptions.

To become a member it's a one time fee of $5.

Oh, that's it then. I've been here for years but as a free user account, so that must be it.

Thanks man!

Thread can be closed now. Thank you all

It wasn't forking for me until a put a space inbetween the " and the link.

" http:.... "

My question is how do you centre an image?!

goldlion THANK YOU, my friend! The solution to making the image appear was, indeed the space between the "" and the URL. Incredibly dumb, but hey, there it is! Thank you so much!

As for centering the image, i haven't tried yet. The thing i know for sure is that it doesn't matter if it's a 1000px wide image you link, it will shrink it to 800px wide.

Have you seen centered images in someone's description?

Fantastic Nordlys, so happy to hear I could help with that. I know how good it feels to finally work and how much of a frustration it could be hen it doesn't.

I haven't seen it honestly, but I feel it'd make a big difference with asthetics of a deck description. If it's not in the code yet, I hope they fix that!
