Load images in readme

At a glance

The post asks how to make images load in the actor readme, as they are not showing up despite being present in the repository. The comments suggest that only the readme markdown file is cloned over and accessible to the store server, while the images are left behind. Community members discuss potential solutions, such as parsing the readme and copying over the linked files, or hosting the images on an external website and using the generated links in the readme. However, there is no explicitly marked answer.

Looks like only the readme markdown file is cloned over and accessible to the store server, while the images are left behind. Is there any way to make the server parse the links and pick up the linked images?
Problem is the repos are usually private so it would seem better to parse the readme and copy over the linked files rather than have to host them in a separate public repo just for images
@Tobey just advanced to level 4! Thanks for your contributions! πŸŽ‰
Honestly, the need to keep track of images for actors and host externally is rather clumsy.
That's what I typically do is, host them on some external website like https://imgbb.com/ and then use the generated link ![screenshot](https://i.ibb.co/whZWvNT/image.png) in the README
It sucks but thank you for sharing!
