As an Editor for The Lark, Writers Daily, Flicks TV Hound, Lifestyle Today, Skinny is Best, and Hotspot Travellers, I see many newcomers using Unsplash photos without stating where they came from in the image caption. Many don’t know how to access Unsplash photos within their draft. So, I thought I would share it here for newcomers and anyone else who doesn’t know about this tool.
Unsplash photos are free to use and share. Medium allows you to access these photos within your draft. This is easy to do once you know how to do it and it will also place the owner’s name and link in the image caption for you.
Instructions on how to access Unsplash photos
Follow these instructions:
- Click on a space within your draft (see the below picture where I have clicked on a space).
- A plus sign will appear (see photo below).
