Where to put the image is up to you, and you can put it anywhere. For putting it right next to the text, just paste the image block code right before the paragraph.

As for the image, I don't believe it can be used. Many websites that aren't explicitly giving you permission can't be used, so you may have to find another. (if u want gimme a theme and ill try getting one).

And yeah, put the image licensing either under the "author" collapsible at the bottom, or (after the page is greenlit), put the license in the comment section.

Hope this helps!

I'm thinking something like an infinite campground or collection of tents with lots of resources, until it got destroyed. Of course, you can change the idea as you like.

I honestly forgot about this article, not in a bad way, just stress wories, so the jumpscare slightly caught me off guard.
However, that's really what this article is; The jumpscare.
While some people are comparing this to SCP-4190 or that intro to 17776, I just don't really care for those; I care about this article having a slightly good idea that could turn into a great level/entity, yet it doesn't hit you.
I'm all for mystery. It's one of my favorite things to talk about, and also explore, because it gives you a chance to create your own story. Even better if it's finished/explained, as it can sometimes completely turn you around and make you more confused.
Yet, having too much mystery is not good. There's few base ideas to build upon, therefore unable to create enough twists. Too little twists cause a boring mystery.
If there was a page describin the entity that was more than 64 words, I would maybe give a +1. For now, it's remaining a novote for the css and good image.

As follows:
1. Where should I put the image block code? On site the images are often alongside the text and I'm not sure if people put the code before or after the text, or if it's put seperately into the image block page(the sandbox thing has two choices for initial content. Somebody explain it aaa)
2. I haven't thoroughly figured out the image policy thing so I'm just gonna ask if this can be used https://weburbanist.com/2017/01/09/street-light-art-traffic-signals-emit-surreal-rainbow-streams-in-hazy-city/
Also do I just need to write that the image is licensed under something at the bottom of the article and that's it, or is it sth else

I feel this article suffers from it's gimmick and status as a mincon post. Hearing an actual explanation of the article and what it was supposed to be, it would be much more interesting as a full, not gimmicky article. The idea of a level that eats your senses is inherently interesting but the situation in which it was executed ruined my potential enjoyment of the article.

Some may argue that the level does everything it's trying to very well…but the issue is I don't like what it's trying to do. The level feels inherently like a cheap scare. The best part is the main body paragraph and the actual writing but even that would be so much more interesting in an environment where it had space to flourish and an actually good payoff

The payoff is honestly where I direct must of my disliking of this article. It feels disconnected from the previous article content. It's a jumpscare, and that's all it is. Sure, it's startling the first time around but it has no real value outside of it's gimmick.

Another argument one may make is that the article is just trying to be scary. In which case, I want to compare this article with other media that does similar things

Too start, I want to discuss SCP 5999. If I am remembering that article correctly, it's a (very well written) sort of collection of short horror tales that don't really connect….and that's the point. It's tied under the idea it's effectively a trap to draw in and kill readers and it ties into pataphysics which is a long explanation but long story short it does this same thing but does it better because it makes it make sense. It's horror for the sake of horror, with a purpose.

Tldr: article bad because the payoff is bad.
