Using an article already existing in Zoho Desk KB as a resolution for another tickets

Sharing Knowledge Base articles across multiple departments
It would be useful to share some Knowledge Base articles across multiple departments where they are applicable, rather than having to go into other departments to find the article you're looking for. For example. Our reception uses the 'Admin' desk whereas our IT guys use the 'Support' desk, however both divisions would find KB articles about our company intranet useful. Reception does not have access to the support desk, so cannot see articles created in the Support KB. Perhaps you could install

Knowledge Base UI
Hi, How can i log into the Knowledge Base in Desk using the same user interface the customers see instead of the user interface agents see. We would like to use the knowledge base in Desk for more areas of our business, but the default view for agents isn't as intuitive as the customer view.

Squished Image Width in Zoho Desk KB Articles
When posting images in Zoho Desk's Knowledge Base, I find that the images frequently end up squished based on how wide they are. Looking at the CSS, it looks like there is a `max-width: 100%` style applied which causes the width to stay within the size of the bounding container, but that simply squishes the width of the image instead of scaling it down. Is there a proper way to add large images, retain the maximum width/size of the image and not have the image squished when the container is smaller
