+### Images
+
+In the above example we used a custom Docker image from index.docker.io **mischief/docker-golang**
+
+Drone also provides official build images. These images are configured specifically for CI and
+have many common software packages pre-installed (git, xvfb, firefox, libsqlite, etc).
+
+Official Drone images are referenced in the **.drone.yml** by an alias:
+
+```sh
+image: go1.2   # same as bradrydzewski/go:1.2
+```
+
+Here is a list of our official images:
+
+```sh
+# these are the base images for all Drone containers.
+# these are BIG (~3GB) so make sure you have a FAST internet connection
