Iโ€™m wondering how-to add images in between texts on Micro.blog? I mean, like this post by @Manton.

@ridwan iA Writer would be your best bet to do this. Or Mimi Uploader.

@ridwan one way would be to use iA Writer since it lest you compose posts and add images plus connect you Micro.blog account and post directly from it. Thatโ€™s one way I do it. Or if you use drafts or another ways, you can use the app Mimi to create image links and put them wherever within the post.

@mpmilestogo @ridwan That's about it. My favorite.

Also Mimi, where you upload the photos before, and get the links ready to paste on your post. And I forgot Sunlit, which allows you to mix photos and text as well. iA Writer offers, in my opinion, the cleaner and best looking way of going about it.

@ridwan For some posts that are mostly photos, I use our iOS app Sunlit, but for that particular post, I uploaded the photos first using the Uploads section on Micro.blog, then copy/pasted the photo references into the text using the Copy HTML button. And often I will use MarsEdit.

@ridwan I too was looking a while back for the best way to do this. Some of it all depends on where you write from. I recently found Quill as a good alternative when writing via the browser if you want to add inline pictures.

@maique Nice one. iA Writer seems really really good. I like their anti-subscription model.

@ericmwalk I usually start composing on Evernote. I haven't tried Quill yet.

@ridwan I will say I have been using iA Writer and I do like it as nice place to start some of my longer thoughts.

@ridwan I upload images first, create a new post, save as draft, copy HTML for image, go back to the drag post and paste in the image HTML.

Alternatively, I open two browser tabs, one open to the photo and the other to the post and copy/paste image HTML.

Alternatively, Iโ€™ll use MarsEdit.
