Wanted to upload this under "Literature" but DA won't allow it.

Part of my "Many Faces Of Cuba" series: [link]

Why were you not able to post it as literature?
Nice story, thank you for sharing it.

Because there doesn't seem to be anyway to attach pictures to submitted literature and I wanted to include the photographs. Literature submissions can be text or html but I tried several time to embed the images using html but just couldn't get it to work and can only assume that mixing images with prose is not possible. DA would not allow me to upload the the jpeg format I eventually used in the literature category.

That's interesting. I have never seen a piece of literature with images here on DA, you are right, people do not use a combination of written word and images, a real shame that DA should not have a provision for this, just like you cannot use marks such as ! in the title of deviations. But I like the format you have chosen and, with your permission, would like to pinch the idea from you. I love writing. Presumably, if I use other people's images I can acknowledge this in the body of the piece.
