πŸ’» How To Add Images Easily to SpaceHey

I think 45% of all the bulletins that I com across here are, "How do I add images to my page/blog/bulletin/whatever?" So, here. Here's the once and for all, the definitive guide on how to add images to SpaceHey things.


Why doesn't SpaceHey have an image gallery?
Because it's fuckingΒ expensive. You have to pay for upload storage space. You have to pay for bandwidth. You have to maintain those servers and install blockers for hot linking. SpaceHey is freeΒ and is being supported by sticker sales. An may have amazing solutions for a lot of these issues, but after a while, you just need a fuckton of money to support 300,000 users uploading 5,000 selfies.

OK, so where do I upload my images?
After doing a bit of research, I think most SpaceHey users' best bet is to go to imgbb.comΒ and use this service. It's easy, it's fast and it provides the one thing every SpaceHey user needs to share a photo: a direct URL.

Step one: acquire your photo and save it to your computer. Step two: go to imgbb and click the Upload button. Choose the image. Step three: Once it's uploaded, you'll see a dropdown menu; select HTML Full Linked and find the URL after "img src="; that's your image. Copy that URL. I wish this was easier, but it's not :( Step four, add it to SpaceHey:

WYSIWIG: Click the Image button and paste the URL in the associated box.


HTML: You'll use this code in any field that supports HTML but isn't in a WYSIWYG editor:

If you have any other questions, let me know!

God bless the dinosaur who died to make the fossil fuel in the car which drove your mother to the hospital when she was giving birth to you.
