Posting pictures from google drive

[Olderisbetter]

I currently use puush image storage to post here but it is full for my free account, I store most of my images on google drive but if i post here many say they cannot view them...any ideas?
test post from google drive below.
can someone change the title to "posting" not "poting" and it seems no image shows?

If I right-click your broken image, and 'open in new page', it comes up ok.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1FQEXgfk1Q-cgI_wIzvK4OkVzofhmA2e4/view
That still doesn't address why the google drive image link is broken at first.

If you inspect the embedded link it is this:

<img src="https://drive.google.com/open?id=1FQEXgfk1Q-cgI_wIzvK4OkVzofhmA2e4" class="bbCodeImage LbImage" alt="" data-url="https://drive.google.com/open?id=1FQEXgfk1Q-cgI_wIzvK4OkVzofhmA2e4" style="">

Not that that helps me, but it is different to the link in a new tab.

I'll see it my friendly guru can suggest an answer. This has been an ongoing problem for me too.

My mate reckons it could be a security flag issue, in much the same way, for example, as Outlook will not open an image from a mail unless you actively click OK to give it permission.

@Farside which browser are you using?

Why not create an album in the media section of this forum then link the picture in from there ?

I use a few forums and i was trying to make all my links easy, I store most of my pictures taken on my phone on my google drive to save using cables.

Would appear to be url related.
Sharing irl rather than a direct link.

The link converter above works.

Interesting. I've had the same problem with imgur too.

Drag and drop seems to work on this site for just about any image I dont use photobucket for.

@eLuSiVeMiTe, I think if everyone can see the picture above we have a winner with the link converter .
