Social media is a great way to share your thoughts and ideas with your friends and even complete strangers. More than just ideas, you can also share pictures. As they say, a picture is worth a thousand words, and that is still true to this day. The social media website X (formerly Twitter), just like any of the other popular social media websites, allows you to share images either using your computer or your smartphone.

Double-click on your chosen photo. You have to go through your computer to find the image you want to add, and once you’ve made your choice, select the picture by double-clicking on it.

Double-check and post. Once you’re done writing your tweet, go over your picture and its caption one more time. When everything is to your liking, click on the blue “Tweet” button just below your post to share the image on your X page.
