Featured Image
The standard comm-link has a featured image that is not quite the right size and shape for our header infobox but that's easily remedied.

Take the image from the first ever comm-link. It has the url of:

https://robertsspaceindustries.com/media/puvp3i50x7n2qr/post_section_header/NewsScreen.jpg

What we need to do is take the "post_section_header" and change it to "post" and pull the result from the RSI website:

https://robertsspaceindustries.com/media/puvp3i50x7n2qr/post/NewsScreen.jpg

That can be uploaded with a name as noted above: "'Comm-Link-' + short indicator of comm-link name + file type"

Incidentally, if you substitute "source" instead of post from the RSI url above, you'll get the highest resolution uncropped image available for whatever RSI image you are working with. Now you know how people get those high-res images out of the Category:Monthly Reports
