The preferred way of using images is placing them in the `/images/` directory and referencing them with an absolute path. Prepending the filename with `{% raw %}{{ site.url }}{{ site.baseurl }}/images/{% endraw %}` will make sure your images display properly in feeds and such.

![Unsplash image 9]({{ site.url }}{{ site.baseurl }}/images/unsplash-image-9.jpg)

Image that fills page content container by adding the `.full` class with:

**HTML:**

```html
<img src="/images/filename.jpg" alt="" class="full">
```

**or Kramdown:**

```markdown
{% raw %}![alt](/images/filename.jpg)
{: .full}{% endraw %}
```

![Unsplash image 10]({{ site.url }}{{ site.baseurl }}/images/unsplash-image-10.jpg)
{: .full}
