Inserting Picture Files

If you upload a jpg and can't get it to be inserted, this is why. You need to rename its extent to jpeg, upload, and reference it with .jpeg extent.

So you need to rename something.jpg to be something.jpeg, upload and reference it as something.jpeg: {{something.jpeg?linkonly}} (the 'linkonly' is optional, it links to the picture, click-to-see-it, rather than insert-the-picture-here)
