Gist: How are images uploaded to a gist?

With a little creativity you can achieve this faster than cloning. To drag/drop:

1. Create the Gist
2. Drag an image into the comment field below. This will auto-upload your image file to https://user-images.githubusercontent.com and insert markdown code in the comment field to display the image.
3. Copy this markdown code to your gist

Note: It is not required that you submit the comment.
