Hi everyone,

I have a quick question regarding images on Freesound.

Am I correct in understanding that images can only be added to sound packs, not to individual sounds?
When editing a single sound, I can see options like Add sound sources, but there doesn’t seem to be any option to upload an image directly for that sound.

I’ve noticed that some users appear to have images associated with their sounds, so I just wanted to double-check whether:

images are only possible via sound packs, or

there is another way to add images to individual sounds that I might be missing.

Thanks in advance for the clarification!

Best regards,
Urmas

I add images to many of my sounds. I don't think you can upload the image directly to freesound, but you can link from freesound to images elsewhere on the web. I do this:

1) upload the image to somewhere on the web that allows external links directly to the image (I used to use google drive, but they have made it hard to link to images externally; I use imgbox.com, there are many other options.)

2) put the link in the soundcloud description like this:

Thank you, I tried. But it only put a link, but I would like to have a photo there, like here.

I don't understand what syntax this picture will appear in there?
