It’s a strange decision by the Anytype team: all objects have links except images.  
Why… mystery.  
And it would be so useful! There’s a request for this, so don’t hesitate to vote and participate so that the subject isn’t forgotten.

> WHAT DO YOU RECOMMEND? I think images in database should have links to source object, where they were inserted. E.g. I have note Cats and page Dogs. I’ve attached one picture inside Cats and two inside Dogs. In image set grid I want to see links to Cats and Dogs. HOW COULD IT BE DONE? Auto add link to source object. REAL WORLD USE CASES Image set grid view.

I just switched to this note taking software and was shocked to find that you are taking notes without this feature, and as of today, there are only about twenty people vote this feature.unbelievable！

be aware that anytype is in heavy development with many major changes as they progress. I would not consider it a stable platform at this point, yet. the concept is fun and intriguing but it has still some quirks, limitations here and there and is changing constantly.
