Streamlined Media Management Meets a Fresh Look

3BL’s Editor Just Got Easier To Work With. We’ve Consolidated Media Uploads Into a Single Button and Given Featured Images the Spotlight They Deserve.

One button for all your media

Previously, contributors had to navigate separate buttons for different media types. Now, everything lives behind one integrated button — images, video, audio, and embeds included.

  • Access all accepted media types from a single area
  • See file types, sizes, and sources before you upload
  • Reuse existing assets without re-uploading them

Why it matters

"A strong image is what keeps your readers engaged throughout your story."

Here's the case for prioritizing your inline media:

  1. Compelling media gives your story a chance to stand out in a crowded feed
  2. Sharp, well-chosen media signals credibility and professionalism
  3. The right media drives higher click-through and read rates

In short: inline media selection is a strategic decision, not a decorative afterthought — and it's exactly why we're rolling this update out network-wide.

Try it today — log in and look for the new media button in the editor's toolbar.
