How do you upload images to a gist?

Take a look at this: https://gist.github.com/mbostock/5503544#file-thumbnail-png

What I have tried is drag-and-drop the image file while in the edit mode of a gists. That didn't seem to work under Crhome and FireFox.

Update: After a back and forth emails with GitHub, this feature (drag-and-drop binary files, images) isn't supported.

I was looking for answer for the same question, here is what I just found:

1. You can clone your gist as a git repository and add your picture, then push to origin. See loading-thumbnail-into-gist-for.

2. There is a script written to do this: hecticjeff/gist-img.

I have not tried the above solutions yet, but pretty sure they should work. I did try using defunkt/gist to update my gist with a png but ended up displaying a binary file in my gist.

With a little creativity you can achieve this faster than cloning. To drag/drop:

1. Create the Gist
2. Drag an image into the comment field below. This will upload your image file and insert the markdown code with the url for your uploaded image.
3. Copy this markdown and paste it into the file you want to display it.

1. Create a gist or reuse one of your gists.

2. Clone your gist:

   git clone https://gist.github.com/<hash>.git
   

3. Add your image to your gist's repository:

   git add my-image.jpg
   

4. Commit the image:

   git commit -m "adding my image to my gist"
   

5. Update gist by pushing you modifications:

   git push origin master

I was looking for an answer to this same question too, in my case in order to be able to upload PDF files. I had trouble with gist-img (mentioned in another answer to this question). I searched some more and discovered gistup, which worked perfectly, the first time I tried it. It uses node and npm, so it should work on most major operating systems.

How to put images in your Gist url:

3. ?????
4. Profit

Clone gist with SSH:

$ git clone git@gist.github.com:<hash>.git mygist

HTTP clone worked fine, but ran into HTTP authentication problems at git push.

uploading the image somewhere and using the HTML <img> tag works for me

If you upload an image, try these steps:

• Convert your image into DataURI. For example here on duri.me
• Then this string insert to GIST as a text file

If you want to convert back, there are several options. For example, this: Converting data URI to image data
