Text inline imagery

How to use it

Add imagery inline with text.

When to use it

Sometimes an image says more than words could, or helps to reinforce a point. It also is more visually interesting than plain text. It seems like the most common imagery designers add inline to text is emojis, probably because they’re universal now.

What to watch out for

Often the imagery you add will not match the cap-height of the text. Because of this and the sudden shifts in visuals/colour, this technique can look messy.
