Nice. Yeah, attachments & embeds are going to be cool. So, sounds like for you just linking to an image plus previewing it in the display will be enough? Sound

Sounds like you wouldn't want us to let you upload the image to our site, right?
- palish 16y agoFor me, it's not necessary to upload the image to your site, no. But most of your users won't be using Dropbox... the vast majority of them wouldn't take the time to upload to some external site (e.g. ImageShack) then copy the link into the item. That said, you likely don't need to worry about being able to upload to your site right now. Attaching an image seems like a pretty special-case thing, so you could simply support an external URL for now... To answer your question: yes it would be ideal if I could "attach" an image URL to an item. That would then show a small ~(128px by 128px) thumbnail. Clicking on it would pop up a new tab and navigate to the image URL.
- chrisgoodrich 16y agoI'd agree that a URL link is good for now, but I'd vote against any inline embedding. I think this will complicate your UI. I think the link should browse to a new page in workflowy that is sub to the item to which it is attached and embed the image or video there.
