Manual Linking?
Using blogdown for generating websites and blog-posts from Rmarkdown files
with lots of inserted code and figures
seems pretty awesome, but sometimes you want to include a figure manually, either
because you want to generate something manually and convert it (say
for going from SVG of lots of points to hi-res PNG), or because it is a figure
from something else (like this figure from wikipedia).
Where to??
To do this, you want the text of your <img> tag to your image to be:
<img src = "/img/image_file.png"></img>And then put the image itself in the directory /static/img/image_file.png

This information is also mentioned in section 2.7 of the Blogdown book. Obviously I need to do more reading.
