Is there anyway to add your images when using code pen.

I've put a number of my sites up on Code pen, and I have some images with these sites. But, the images don't show up because, you can't add a images folder. Do you have to embed the images in order for them to show up in code pen, or is there another way. Thank you in advance for any help.

You could host them in your public Dropbox and have the src attr point to that link.

There is an article on external files but this is for CSS or JS (http://blog.codepen.io/documentation/editor/adding-external-resources/)

Alex Hedley Do you know if there is a way I can post a picture to the forum from my dropbox account? When I have tried so far, the link from dropbox doesn't end in .png so the link is not working. Any ideas?
