Using the link to image in description... not working

Hey all

So I got an imgur acct and uploaded a couple images, tried to add them in the description, and it didn't work... I put:

just like that, and when I submit, it just disappears from the text in the description, but no image.

What am I doing wrong? I double checked that the links were good...

    For Imgur change the link to the direct link. It will remove the s from https and add .jpg at the emd of the URL.

    So to embed a photo I type:

    ! [ ] (imageaddress)

    Like that, right (no spaces of course)? Well, that’s how I’ve been doing it, and the images still don’t show up... just a little empty box... I triple checked that the links were right, and tried using imgur and imgbb...
    I don’t get what I’m doing wrong :(

    Right, well in that case, “blah” is the text you click on, and “link” is the address, right? Except I just want the image embedded in the description, not just a hyperlink that takes you to where the image is hosted...? @AchuTMM

    I tried that and I’m having the same problem. Exactly what keystrokes do I need to type in front of/behind the link? @AchuTMM
