I notice that many people include photos or other illustrations on their posts

Do they make extra money for including illustrations or is that just for fun? I checked the FAQ and didn't find anything about it.

No extra money, except that it makes the discussion more interesting & maybe more will read it.

No extra money It's nice to relate the discussion with a photo, well that's my thought so I'd try to include photos related to what I'm writing about.

I receive more responses to some of my discussions with a photograph. There are times when a picture can help others understand what I'm describing and see the actual event or color of something. When more people respond with a comment (interact), then I make more that day.

We are not paid for photos and linked articles/videos, but it can make a discussion more attractive for members and then indirectly make extra money.

there are no financial rewards for adding photos but images help to catch a reader's attention and I'm keen on photography anyhow

no. but they should pay us extra for using our own media. i post my own photos with my posts, i just think it adds a flavor of "something different" to them.

We don't directly earn from including pictures. But it may attract more interactions to our posts, and we earn from interactions we receive on our posts of discussions/responses/comments.

it's nice to see or have an idea of what people are talking about in their post, whether the picture is from a free-to-use site like pixabay, or their personal photos, especially since we come from all over the world.

I do not think we do. It is just nice to share pictures of our cats and other stuff.

No extra money. I do it because I like to post a picture with my post. I don't do it with all of them.
