# Hosting Images

It’s possible to add images to your Wiki pages and images can be sourced from the Internet, a Cloud storage bucket (like an AWS S3 Bucket), or even from files stored to the VM Essentials appliance’s local file system. Within your Wiki page markdown, add your image using the following syntax:

```
```
![my alt text](https://myimage.com/image.jpg)
```
```

The text within the square brackets [] sets the HTML “alt” description for the image and the URL within parentheses () is the “src” URL for the image. The VM Essentials [Archives](https://docs.morpheusdata.com/en/latest/tools/archives.html) feature is a great resource for hosting images for use in Wiki. Archives can target cloud storage buckets or even file shares on the VM Essentials appliance local storage. VM Essentials generates an access URL for each file stored in Archives, simply target this URL in your markdown to show an image stored in VM Essentials Archives within your Wiki pages.
