# Obsidian Avatar

This plugin provides you with a component that will display a small image with some accompanying text. That's it.

![Preview Mode](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/maradotwebp/obsidian-avatar/master/docs/avatar_preview.PNG)

To use, insert the following snippet into your markdown.

````
```avatar
```
````

## Editing the picture / description

**In source mode**, you can edit the codeblock directly:

````
```avatar
image: your-image-here.png
description: This will be displayed as the description!
```
````

**In live preview mode**, click on the image to change it _(then either select one from your vault, or paste in a URL to a picture online)_, or edit the description by clicking on it _(Don't forget to click the button to save your changes!)_

![Edit Mode](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/maradotwebp/obsidian-avatar/master/docs/avatar_edit.PNG)

The description editor supports all markdown features of Obsidian.

-   `image?: string`
    -   A path or URL to an image. Optional, defaults to a picture of the file path initials.

-   `objectPosition?: string`
