Managing notes in the Sticky Notes is an easy affair now. You can find all notes at one place and can open only you want to view or edit. Besides that, your notes in Sticky Notes are available across your Windows 10 devices. A web version of Sticky Notes has also been made available just in case you want to access Sticky Notes on Android, iPhone, iPad, and macOS.

It is not helpful to put an image at the top of the page. It overwrites the title of the sticky not. You could be able to place an image in the note where you need it.
Brian Quass says
The image function is pretty useless for me. If you import a small image into a sticky, it becomes a large image and besides taking up much valuable space, it looks terrible. I can see no way to resize an image after its been imported into a sticky.
