3. Upload from Your Device
   Click Upload in the image block to browse files on your computer. Select the image you want to upload, and it will be embedded directly into the page.

Common Pitfalls and How to Avoid Them

1. Uploading Images with Unsupported Formats
   Notion supports most common image types like JPG, PNG, and GIF. Avoid using TIFF or RAW files which may not upload correctly.

2. Embedding Images with Broken Links
   When using a link to embed an image, make sure it’s a direct link ending in .jpg, .png, or .gif. If the link isn’t direct, the image may not display.

3. Images Not Resizing Properly
   If you're trying to create side-by-side images, place them in separate columns rather than trying to manually resize them next to each other.

4. Not Optimizing Image Size
   Large image files may slow down the page. Compress or resize your images before uploading for faster page load and better performance.

5. Forgetting to Caption Important Visuals
   Images without context can confuse readers. Use the Add caption option for clarity, especially when the image supports a paragraph or idea.
