Hello,

When you make a post, you should see a button that says "Img"
Upon clicking that button, you will see two tags. In between those tags, place an image URL. (You can get this URL by uploading your image to an image hosting site, then right clicking on the image and selecting "Copy image location.")
It should look like this: Image

You can hit Preview to determine your success.

Kayla,
Sorry for the late reply, have been away for a while.
Actually I was looking for a more direct way, just upload the picture directly from my harddisk.
Via an image hosting serverlooks a long way around to me.

Hello Kayla,
I did exactly as described, inserted the url in between the two img-elements, nothing happned.
When entering the url right away in a new page, the picture shows.
this is the URL: https://photos.google.com/photo/AF1QipM ... GGgDA4wbBR
What could I have done wrong?

Hello,

Make sure your image can be shared by updating its privacy settings.

Also, make sure you are using "Copy image location" when you copy your link.
