+## Dark and Light Mode Images
+
+Sometimes images don't look good in both light and dark mode. You can annotate the import path with a special tag to ensure an image is only shown on a specific color scheme.
+
+```md
+![sstable](sstable-l.webp#light)
+![sstable](sstable-d.webp#dark)
+```
+
+In the above example, the light image is a transparent background with dark lines, while the dark one has light ones.
+
+If you omit the `#dark` or `#light` tags an image is always shown.
+
+## Images Sizing
+
+There exist two tags to control sizing:
+- `#small`: the image takes 80% of the original scale.
+- `#full`: theĀ image takes up all the available screen width.
+
+You can also specify a caption using the following form:
+
+```
+![alt text](path.png#dark#small "Caption text")
+```
+
+I understand everyone could want a different scale for small images, you can override the default small class in your custom CSS:
+
+```css
+.img-small img {
+ scale: 80%;
+}
+```
+
+[Here](https://tomfran.github.io/posts/hugo-images/) you can find a blog post showing different tags combinations.
+
+## Adding new Image Tags
+
+All tags are assumed to be related to an image class, which applies styling for the figure environment.
+
+You can add a new one, provided you add a class named `img-<tag_name>`.
+
+Feel free to have a look at existing ones to have a grasp on how they work.
