```

## Discussion

Image is the general component for images in an article. If possible, choose one of the more specific image-related components such as [`Figure`](/documentation/AppleNewsFormat/Figure), [`Logo`](/documentation/AppleNewsFormat/Logo), [`Portrait`](/documentation/AppleNewsFormat/Portrait), or [`Photo`](/documentation/AppleNewsFormat/Photo).

> Note:
> The supported image types are JPEG (`.jpeg` or `.jpg`), WebP, GIF, or PNG. If you add an animated WebP image, the system removes the animation from the WebP image.

See <doc://com.apple.applenews/documentation/AppleNews/preparing-image-video-audio-music-and-arkit-assets>.
