It might be worth adding something that took me a while to figure out. None of the searches I processed listed this information, I figured it out through trial and error. 

When using the centre option, everything following will center, even when /Center is used. 

To realign left, < BR > (I can’t get the back tick to work) must be added (I’m sure < p > would work as well).

A couple other side notes: 

- dash ‘-‘ also produces bullet points and is easier to add than the alternative, *

- if one wants space between headers, br needs to be used on the next line

- to get text beside a photo, the image needs to be small enough to allow space; markdown doesn’t accept HTML code sizing. Either download or design a small enough variation, or edit.

- emphasis and bold star * codes don’t work after punctuation, so the * must be placed before the period, question mark, or whatever. 

 - more than one < sub > can be used to create even smaller text than the small text. <sub> one sub</sub> <sub><sub> two subs </sub></sub> <sub><sub><sub> three subs </sub> </sub> </sub> <sub><sub><sub><sub>four subs </sub></sub></sub></sub>

- two lines ____ with italic font in between cad serve perfectly as block quote or links 

- larger headers can also be used for block quotes, or links.

- headers and spacing can be applied differently than standard use, for creative and visual appealing formatting (especially for poets)

Mark, thank you for your list. There were a few things that I didn’t already know, and one partially behaviours I’ve been trying to get to work for me. Very handy.

You can resize images via code:
<center><sub>Tiny Picture links back to my blog:</sub></center><center><a href="https://peakd.com/@bashadow"><img src=https://images.hive.blog/100x50/https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/bashadow/CSiw0Xl5-avatar3.png></a>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;   <a href="https://peakd.com/@bashadow"><img src=https://images.hive.blog/100x50/https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/bashadow/CSiw0Xl5-avatar3.png></a>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; <a href="https://peakd.com/@bashadow"><img src=https://images.hive.blog/100x50/https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/bashadow/CSiw0Xl5-avatar3.png></a>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;<a href="https://peakd.com/@bashadow"><img src=https://images.hive.blog/100x50/https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/bashadow/CSiw0Xl5-avatar3.png></a></center>
By combining the resize and making it an image link you can have nice sized images for a line of icon links.
`<center><sub>Tiny Picture links back to my blog:</sub></center><center><a href="https://peakd.com/@bashadow"><img src=https://images.hive.blog/100x50/https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/bashadow/CSiw0Xl5-avatar3.png></a></center>`
This is the segment that allows the resize `https://images.hive.blog/100x50/`

To add blank spaces between the images use the HTML Code `&nbsp;` I find stringing 5 blank spaces works pretty good.

This isn't really true, but there are some oddities that do cause a center to be unclosed.  But most cases `<center></center>` works fine.

**Sure they do.**  You just can't have a space between it.
