Some of my MO answers have figures in them. How do I add captions and tags to them?

1$\begingroup$ How do you make those figures? If it's an external image file, just add the caption there. $\endgroup$– Asaf Karagila ModCommented Apr 21, 2019 at 14:51

$\begingroup$ I wrote a caption but it did not come out right. See the 6th picture (from ttop to bottom) in this answer mathoverflow.net/questions/328497/… $\endgroup$– Liviu NicolaescuCommented Apr 21, 2019 at 14:53

3$\begingroup$ Those captions are not captions that appear below your figure. Those are meant as alternative text for screen readers or so. $\endgroup$– Asaf Karagila ModCommented Apr 21, 2019 at 15:03

2$\begingroup$ This rather old feature request is a bit related: Add Image Captions. The answer posted there basically explains that MarkDown has no predefined way to do that. $\endgroup$– Martin SleziakCommented Apr 21, 2019 at 17:52

1$\begingroup$ What do you mean by "tags" exactly? $\endgroup$– Federico PoloniCommented Apr 22, 2019 at 19:01

One way to approximate a figure caption is to add this immediately after your image:
<br />
<sup>
Figure caption here.
</sup>
<br />
The br breaks to a new line. The  's tab in horizontally. The sup's make the tex smaller (superscript). For example:
