This addresses the different question  how to get images in gist  as opposed to github  markdown in the first place    In December 2015  it seems that only links to files on github com or cloud githubusercontent com or the like work  Steps that worked for me in a gist    Make a gist  say Mygist md  and optionally more files  Go to the  Write Comment  box at the end Click  Attach files     by selecting them   select your local image file GitHub echos a long long string where it put the image  e g    khan-lasso-squared  https   cloud githubusercontent com assets 1280390 12011119 596fdca4-acc2-11e5-84d0-4878164e04bb png  Cut-paste that by hand into your Mygist md    But  GitHub people may change this behavior tomorrow  without documenting it

Almost 5 years after only the direct HTML formatting works for images on GitHub and other markdown options still prevent images from loading when specifying some custom sizes even with the wrong dimensions  I prefer to specify the desired width and get the height calculated automatically  for example    x000D   x000D   lt img src  https   github com your image png  alt  Your image title  width  250   gt  x000D   x000D   x000D

On GitHub  you can use HTML directly instead of Markdown    lt a href  url  gt  lt img src  http   url to image png  align  left  height  48  width  48   gt  lt  a gt    This should make it

I have used methods described above  Now I am using the method which is a way similiar but more simple to me    First create add README md file to your project   Then upload screenshoots or whatever description images needed to your project main directory  After uploading image Assets use html to refer these assets directly without using link like below    Like this    lt img src  icon jpg  width  324  height  324  gt    lt p align  center  gt     lt img src  screen1 png  width  256  height  455  gt     lt img src  screen2 png  width  256  height  455  gt     lt img src  screen3 png  width  256  height  455  gt   lt  p gt    On above example I have used paragraph to align images side by side  If you are going to use single image just use the code as below   lt img src  icon jpg  width  324  height  324  gt    Have a nice day
