Hey Fiona!
That's a great question! Have you looked at adding an image and including a hyperlink within the accompanying text - such as an image as a part of a Process Interaction? My colleague Ashley recorded a quick video of this in Peek for how to set this up within the Process interaction. I hope this is helpful!

I think it would be useful if you could give images in a gallery a hyperlink to another part of the module. ie a launch page. and not a link on the text under an image, an actual link on the image itself.
Cool idea Peter - and definitely worth sharing with our team as a Feature idea! So just to confirm, you'd be looking for an option to add a hyperlink to an image in your course that jumps to another part of the course, or even outside of the Rise course? The user wouldn't see the hyperlink text either way? Just want to make sure I capture your thoughts clearly and you can also share them directly with our Product team by sending along here.

I would also use this feature for the social media option I mentioned a number of weeks back. Having a hyperlink image would allow me to insert a "tweet this" image that would open up twitter in a new window.
Cool idea Cindy, and good to know. I'll pass it along to the team and you can always send your thoughts here in a feature request as well.

It seems that an image associated with a link would be a valuable asset. The user clicks the image and is brought to the page from which the image originated...

Check out how Dreamweaver does image maps. That's the solution and what I'm looking for. Not sure if I'll be able to do something like this but will keep working. My use is to have an image of a table (built in Excel and taken as a screen shot). Then, each column header in the table has an image map that opens a hyperlink (specifically in my case a link to a PDF related to that column). And the "Markers" do not work because they cover the column headers, making them unreadable. The image map is invisible until the user mouses over the title and then it changes to the pointer to click.

Has this feature been added to rise?

Indeed, this would be an excellent feature. Ran into this post while researching how to embed a deep link to videos hosted in our LMS (we need to track completion). Obviously, we could use a text link but a picture (thumbnail) is more visually appealing. I tried to Multimedia embed option using iframe but that didn't work very well :(
