Slack doesn't show selfies in previews because it's a link #75

From a reviewer in the Chrome store: "Good extension but it needs to just put a plain image and not make the image a link. The link causes the image not to show up in slack and that's just unacceptable :D. Maybe just append a link to the extension after the image?"

Wondering if there's some metadata we can throw somewhere to make Slack happy again.

I always just manually edit the markdown to exclude the link portion, which works fine. Maybe there's a different way to accomplish a link back to your repo?
