+
+**Tip:** When you want to display an image which is in your repository, you should use relative links instead of absolute links. 
+
+{% endtip %}
+
+Here are some examples for using relative links to display an image.
+
+| Context | Relative Link |
+| ------ | -------- |
+| In a `.md` file on the same branch | `/assets/images/electrocat.png` |
+| In a `.md` file on another branch | `/../main/assets/images/electrocat.png` |
+| In issues, pull requests and comments of the repository | `../blob/main/assets/images/electrocat.png` |
+| In a `.md` file in another repository | `/../../../../github/docs/blob/main/assets/images/electrocat.png` |
+| In issues, pull requests and comments of another repository | `../../../github/docs/blob/main/assets/images/electrocat.png?raw=true` |
+
+{% note %}
+
+**Note**: The last two relative links in the table above will work for images in a private repository only if the viewer has at least read access to the private repository which contains these images.
