sudo apt-get install imagemagick sudo apt-get install pdflatex
Due to my failure in making nice looking equations in my last posts, I worked on discovering a solution. Naturally, I tried to google Latex and Blogger. Latex is what I usually use for formatting equations, so that is what I was hoping to find. Unfortunately, most of the ideas I found for inserting equations into Blogger relied on hosted scripts and random people providing image hosting. I tried two solutions described in blogs and both didn't work, due to the site hosting the rendering engine being down. If you would like to convert LaTeX code directly into PNGs on the web, you can try codecogs, but I find the website to appear pretty Spammy and you cannot have very much control over your results. But, hey, it works.
Next idea: use Latex to write equations, use pdflatex to turn them into PDFs, and then use ImageMagick to convert the PDFs into PNGs. Easy, right? Well, here are the results:
