# [How to add an image to a gist](https://remarkablemark.org/blog/2016/06/16/how-to-add-image-to-gist/)
1. Create or find a [gist](https://gist.github.com) that you own.
2. Clone your gist (replace `<hash>` with your gist's hash):
```sh
# with ssh
git clone [email protected]:<hash>.git mygist
# with https
git clone https://gist.github.com/<hash>.git mygist
```
3. Change to your gist’s directory:
```sh
cd mygist
```
4. Add and commit the image:
```sh
git add tulip.jpg
git commit -m "Add tulip to gist"
```
5. Update remote:
```sh
git push origin master
```
See blog [post](https://remarkablemark.org/blog/2016/06/16/how-to-add-image-to-gist/).
