## Image discussions
> [Introduced][ce-14531] in GitLab 10.1.
Sometimes a discussion is revolved around an image. With image discussions,
you can easily target a specific coordinate of an image and start a discussion
around it. Image discussions are available in merge requests and commit detail views.
To start an image discussion, hover your mouse over the image. Your mouse pointer
should convert into an icon, indicating that the image is available for commenting.
Simply click anywhere on the image to create a new discussion.
![Start image discussion](img/start_image_discussion.gif)
After you click on the image, a comment form will be displayed that would be the start
of your discussion. Once you save your comment, you will see a new badge displayed on
top of your image. This badge represents your discussion.
>**Note:**
This discussion badge is typically associated with a number that is only used as a visual
reference for each discussion. In the merge request discussion tab,
this badge will be indicated with a comment icon since each discussion will render a new
image section.
Image discussions also work on diffs that replace an existing image. In this diff view
mode, you can toggle the different view modes and still see the discussion point badges.

Image discussions also work well with resolvable discussions. Resolved discussions
on diffs (not on the merge request discussion tab) will appear collapsed on page
load and will have a corresponding badge counter to match the counter on the image.
