Some of my MO answers have figures in them. How do I add captions and tags to them?

- 1$\begingroup$ How do you make those figures? If it's an external image file, just add the caption there. $\endgroup$Asaf Karagila– Asaf Karagila Mod2019-04-21 14:51:18 +00:00Commented Apr 21, 2019 at 14:51

- 3$\begingroup$ Those captions are not captions that appear below your figure. Those are meant as alternative text for screen readers or so. $\endgroup$Asaf Karagila– Asaf Karagila Mod2019-04-21 15:03:49 +00:00Commented Apr 21, 2019 at 15:03
- 2$\begingroup$ This rather old feature request is a bit related: Add Image Captions. The answer posted there basically explains that MarkDown has no predefined way to do that. $\endgroup$Martin Sleziak– Martin Sleziak2019-04-21 17:52:53 +00:00Commented Apr 21, 2019 at 17:52

One way to approximate a figure caption is to add this immediately after your image:
<br /> <sup> Figure caption here. </sup> <br /> The br breaks to a new line. The  's tab in horizontally. The sup's make the tex smaller (superscript). For example:
