Hi! I am creating cryptography task and I want to attached image for that particular task. Could you possibly tell me where should I supposed to add image for the task? I have tried while creating box but unable to add.

Suggestion: add it to a web server somewhere. Provide the link in the Box description. Instead of the usual "<a href='http:// " syntax, use something along the lines of "inspect [this image](http://URL/image.png)" and it will show up as a link (i.e., use Markdown syntax for links). If you want a blank line between the current one and the next, don't add a blank line (it won't show). Instead, put two spaces at the end of the first line. The interpreter will add the blank line.

What @packetgeek suggested covers it pretty well, but here are a couple more tips. Adding inspect [this image](http://URL/image.png) will create a link to the image. Adding inspect ![this image](http://URL/image.png) will embed the image. You'll need that exclamation point to render the image in the description. As far as location, you could place the image in /files/story and then link to it like this ![crypto](/story/crypto.png).
