Ok guys, Since the site no longer supports image storage, I decided to put this here for all users to see and possibly use. I made this guide for my conversion site years ago. Hope it helps

Google allows linking of files to google drive. However, when linking images we get a plain link and not a viewable image. This is more or less what you get when copying a gdrive link:

If you put the link in an image container:
Code:
[img]https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B_CTNUqImnGeOTdFV04yemE0eFk[/img]

It'll look like this:

open


So in order to get it to display like this:
uc


Use this format instead:
Code:
[img]https://drive.google.com/uc?export=download&id=0B_CTNUqImnGeOTdFV04yemE0eFk[/img]
 
For those wanting alternatives, for whatever reason:

You can also upload your picture to any Discord server (if you use Discord):
Then right click on the image and copy the link > then insert the image either with container text or the image insert in the tool bar

Result:
iaj7e6am4xk21.png

Wish I owned it, but alas just one off the internet.

No I mean the post. I was trying to be smartass and figure out an easier method to embed the image from Google Drive. I failed hence my post had no purpose. I have a habit from a previous forum to then blank the post (if it was only made a short while ago) leaving behind the an italic "delete me" message to whatever mod sees it next. I sometimes forget this forum isn't that one.

Lol I know... I saw your original post. Was just kidding

@Whoozycomic when you click on the picture you want to show and it enlarges it, right click and go to OPEN IMAGE IN NEW TAB (if you have that) and then copy that URL and INSERT IMAGE
 
I still cant get it... I suck at this.. the insert image shows an error.
 
okay so I have tried everything.. I cant get this to work. Please someone do a load pictures for dummies.. step by step
 
This sucks. Honestly. So much missions just to post a thread now..
Are you willing to pay for 100GB disk space at our hosts per month? And increase them as people post more images on carbonite?
