  • This is an image: ![](https://hexbear.net/pictrs/image/456a406f-0cbc-4a0b-8062-d89a078ff465.png)

    Always include a description of your image between the square brackets so that visually impaired users know what the image is a picture of. Example:

    ![post maxi tweet](https://hexbear.net/pictrs/image/456a406f-0cbc-4a0b-8062-d89a078ff465.png)

    post maxi tweet

    or

    ![It's post maxi. If grossing in hhyswixw](https://hexbear.net/pictrs/image/456a406f-0cbc-4a0b-8062-d89a078ff465.png)

    It's post maxi. If grossing in hhyswixw

    or

    Or if you want, you can include a title for your image, which non-visually-impaired users will see when hovering over the image. Like this:

    ![It's post maxi. If grossing in hhyswixw](https://hexbear.net/pictrs/image/456a406f-0cbc-4a0b-8062-d89a078ff465.png "It's post maxi. If grossing in hhyswixw")

    It's post maxi. If grossing in hhyswixw

    Also, you can host videos with sound on toots.matapacos.dog and embed them on Hexbear (but you should include descriptions of any videos you post for blind users, too).

    Example: I posted a video in this toot, and now I can embed it
