Image to HTML uploads a picture and fills the address into an HTML img tag, a Markdown image, and a BBCode image tag. After the upload finishes, use the copy buttons on the result to copy one format. No account is required. The snippets point at a public file, so only upload images you can share.

How to turn an image into HTML, Markdown, or BBCode

Upload the image, then copy the snippet that matches the editor. The buttons use the same direct URL in every format.

1

Upload the image

Choose a JPG, PNG, GIF, WebP, or other supported image that you are allowed to publish. Stay within the size and pixel limits shown in the uploader.

2

Copy the format

On the result, choose Copy HTML, Copy Markdown, or Copy BBCode. Each button copies one ready-to-paste snippet.

3

Paste and check

Paste into the destination editor and preview the page. Adjust the alt text so it describes the image, then confirm the picture is visible.

What you can copy after upload

The result list gives a one-click copy for three embed formats. Each one uses the URL of that upload. Replace the description in the examples below with text that actually describes your image; the copy button uses the file name as a starting point.

HTML: <img src="https://example.com/image.png" alt="Example image" />
Markdown: ![Example image](https://example.com/image.png)
BBCode: [img]https://example.com/image.png[/img]

HTML is for a webpage or an editor that accepts an img tag. Markdown is for GitHub README files and other Markdown editors. BBCode is only for forums that support an img tag. A plain URL belongs in a field that asks for an image address, not inside a page that expects markup.

HTML image link versus a clickable text link

An img tag displays the picture. An a tag displays text or wraps the picture so it can be clicked. If you need the image itself on the page, copy the HTML image tag. If you also need the image to link somewhere, put the img tag inside an anchor in your own editor and set the href to the page you want.

The src value must be the direct image URL. Pasting the preview page address into src loads a webpage, not the image file. Write alt text that says what the image shows; the file name is only a placeholder.

When the image does not appear

Open the direct URL in a new tab first. If the file does not load there, the upload may not have finished or the address was copied only in part. If it loads in the browser but not in your page, check the editor.

A Markdown editor will not render an HTML img tag unless it allows raw HTML. A forum will not render BBCode unless it supports that syntax. An HTTPS page can block an image whose URL is not HTTPS. The addresses from this uploader use HTTPS.

Several images

You can select up to 10 files in one batch, with 100 MiB of original data in total. Each successful image gets its own copy buttons. The batch actions can also copy a newline-separated list of direct URLs or Markdown snippets. Failed files are left out until they succeed.

Public embeds

An HTML snippet does not hide the image. Anyone who can see the src URL can request the file. Do not embed identity documents, private screenshots, or other confidential pictures. Continued availability is not guaranteed, so keep the original file if the page still needs it later.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I convert an image to HTML?

Upload the image and click the HTML copy button on the result. You get an img tag whose src is the public URL of that file.

Can I copy Markdown and BBCode from the same upload?

Yes. The same result has one-click copy for the HTML img tag, a Markdown image, and a BBCode img tag. They all use the uploaded file's URL.

Which format should a webpage use?

Use the HTML img tag, and set alt to a short description. Use Markdown only if the site renders Markdown, and BBCode only on a forum that supports it.

Do I need an account?

No. The current upload flow does not require sign-up. The image URL is still public to anyone who has it.

Why does my img tag show a broken image?

Confirm the src is the direct image URL, the address starts with https://, and the destination allows external images. Then open that URL by itself to see whether the file loads.

Is the HTML snippet private?

No. The src URL can be requested by anyone who sees it. Do not upload confidential images.
