I'm giving obsidian a go as an editor for my blog and one of the main things I want to fix in my workflow is the ability to quickly drop in images. on first look through the community plugins I found Image Converter. I set it up to convert to webp and drop them in a git submodule. I may make it something other than a git repo in the future, but I've learned that adding images to my blog repo quickly makes it heavy and hard to clone on other machines.

Once the images are there they are pushed and deployed as their own site to cloudflare pages. I made a quick edit to my sick-wikilink-hover plugin for my blog. if it sees a wikilink ending in webp, convert the domain over to obsidian-assets.waylonwalker.com, and clean up the remaining "! " that the python md-it library leaves behind.

Note

after first try I needed to increase the width from 600 to 1400, the image in this post was unreadable.

This is part of me getting set up and trying-obsidian
