Posting Pics with Google Photo
Hi

Was hoping I can get some tips on hosting with Google Photo.
Any help would be great.

Google Photo isn't intended as a traditional image host.  As such there's no straight forward way to directly link in image.

There's a number of workarounds that have worked (and which I have used in the past), and no longer do, or that may still work until Google makes a change and they don't work any longer.  That isn't really what you want in a hosting service.


So you're better off hosting your images on an actual image hosting service.

Re: Posting Pics with Google Photo
Do you know of any image hosting sites that offer free, however limited, storage? I spent two hours yesterday trying to come up with a work around for posting pics from Google but couldn't get it to work.

You can reference this previous discussion, which I believe is still relevant.
