Aids for Medium Writer
Shortcut adding picture into Medium
No need to screenshot, copy-paste, or save the file to disk.
To make your writing looks more professional, normally you’ll add a cover picture for your writing like above.
In the past, I used to go to some legitimate website (e.g. Unsplash), and download the image and upload it to Medium. Later I copy and paste from the site, but the resolution is limited (I can’t enlarge it like above).
And the most hassle (yet most important) is to add the credits. I manually copy and paste and add the link. It’s like a ritual and takes minutes of my life away.
Medium provided the solution!
Little did I know, Medium already sort that out for us.
We could search on Medium and click and select the picture. All the credits and links are added to it automatically.
This is all done by just click the SEARCH icon below!
