I just noticed that one of our images in on the large side - 3.1mb. We could host externally or try to shrink it down if you need.
@sckott This post is to go live Wed July 5th. Can you please respond to Miles' comment above about large image? @jeroen has agreed to do merge and render while you're away. Jeroen do you have everything you need to do this?
Looking at post now, will comment on anything I see.
@jeroen just need to add an entry in the yaml header with topicid: XXX
, where XXX is the topic id in the slug from our forum - just create a new post like https://discuss.ropensci.org/t/packagemetrics-helping-you-choose-a-package-since-runconf17/759 - and use that number at the end of the URL in the yaml of the blog post - then that's it
sorry it's so janky, had an automated setup linking to forum, but it was duplicating and more the posts, so was really annoying
awesome work @MilesMcBain @AliciaSchep
I don't think the big image is a problem - not sure the emoji will come through though

For emoji, can we replace the :emoji: syntax with a link to the image, e.g.:smile:
:smile: is <img src="https://assets-cdn.github.com/images/icons/emoji/unicode/1f604.png" height="20" width="20" align="absmiddle">
?
(I'll also note that there are emoji plugins for jekyll if you want everyone to be able to use emojis seamlessly in their blogposts... :grin: )
Right so it would become: <img src="https://assets-cdn.github.com/images/icons/emoji/unicode/1f680.png" height="20" width="20" align="absmiddle">
I'll make a commit.
Rocket image looked good on my local preview.
@jeroen Can you please make this post dated Wed July 5, 2017 live ... at your timezone convenience? When posted, please ping me on slack and I'll tweet it.
Thank you @MilesMcBain and @AliciaSchep !!!
thanks @MilesMcBain! I also had included two other emojis in as well, any chance you could either add the link to those or just remove? there was a :smile:
and a :tada:
. (Or is there a way I can edit the pull request? Happy to make the change myself, but I think I may need access to your fork of this repo)
I'm hesitant to include fixed size images into the middle of the text, wrapping weirdness etc? Could replace :smile: with lofi acsii version? :Tada: might have to go.
Good point @MilesMcBain! I removed or ascii-ified the in text ones.
This is now live @stefaniebutland

The instructions here didn't quite match https://github.com/ropensci/roweb/blob/master/.github/CONTRIBUTING.md which was sent through by Stef. I went with what was in the link.
