Adding Videos and Images to Questions

Hello Alois,

If we find the question that I am going to ask in a already asked question but is is a very old question (years ago), and I comment on it, will you be able to even know I commented on that question?

Can we upload short, (below 1 min) video clips while asking a question to make it more understandable and save a lot of effort. As you know, "A picture is worth a thousand words" and A video is worth a thousand pictures (actually even more):P. And doing the math, by posting a short 30 second video I save 1000 * 1000 = 10 lakh words. Pretty impressive :D

Hi Chandrachur,

To add an image it needs to be already on the Internet somewhere, and then you can link to it using the image icon at the top of the text box. For videos you could upload a video to your YouTube account and then link to it using the link icon again in the menu at the top of the text box. Let me know if that helps you out.

And to answer your first question Chandrachur, yes, they will know that you have commented on an old thread so it is always best to keep that thread going with new comments rather than starting new threads on the same thing.

Yes indeed that is correct.  Thanks Rufuss.
