《Guides for Readers》How do I view media (pictures, gifs, videos) within a story?
Advertisement
Wattpad stories are more than just words; they can also contain pictures and videos to help the story come alive!
To be able to view media in a story, you must have a strong enough internet connection. You will see a grey box if the media has not been downloaded.
There are two types of media:
- header media: pictures and videos at the top of a story
- inline media: pictures and videos in the text of a story
Header Media:
Header Media appears at the top of a story part.
There is a limit of 2 pieces of media in the header: 2 photos/gifs or 1 photo/gif & 1 video.
The number of dots under the image shows if there is more than one piece of media there. On the apps, swipe left to see the other photo/gif or video. On the web, click on the other dot.
Tapping on the image will enlarge it. From here you can also swipe left or right to other media attached within the story in fullscreen.
Youtube media can be viewed by simply tapping the play button. Youtube videos will begin to play natively within the Wattpad app.
Inline Media:
Inline media are photos, gifs and videos in the story text. There is a limit to 20 photos/gifs or videos in the text per story part.
Tapping/clicking on an image will enlarge it; tapping/clicking on a video will start the video.

The Lightning Brigade
Your name is your burden. One you can never escape. A destiny akin to a storm, ensnaring the unwary and crushing the weak. A power to claim, but at a cost too terrible to name. Power to be a hero. To be a protector. A savior. A monster. Anything you choose to be. To stand apart and be known. To do what you believe is right, no matter the scorn. All you must do is weather the storm. This is the tale of those who fight monsters. Those who become monsters. Who always were. The Lightning Brigade

This is merely here for those of you that want to know every nook and cranny about a certain monster, their lore, what they eat, and so on. This is planned to be my gift to you wonderful people on Valentines day 2021. Anyone can use these monsters in their campaigns, their own stories, and just about anything else.

I won't be disappointed if you do not. I'm truly just happy to have someone enjoy them enough and to get the idea out there. Cover drawn by Rose Dragon
