Bumping this because I noticed it didn't get the "feature request" label assigned and I'm worried it got lost somewhere. |

When adding an image to an embed, the image is currently always rendered at the bottom of the embed, below the text content.
Depending on context however, this isn't always the most aesthetically pleasing position.
To allow for more flexibility when designing custom embeds, I am proposing an additional optional parameter for the embed image structure that specifies the positioning of the image in relation to the embeds text content. By default, the image is rendered at the bottom of the embed (below the content), but if specified it can also be rendered at the top of the embed (above the content).
For the sake of consistency, it might make sense to also consider this for embed videos and thumbnails.
I believe this would be a rather unproblematic feature, considering it would rely on optional parameters only, therefore not breaking existing implementations. It would however drastically increase the design / layout options available to bot creators for customizing embed appearance.
