(1,189 posts)I am on Chrome and did as instructed (I think) but I just get my link showing, not the photo itself!
(I think the link I posted is from a photo-hosting site.)

(13,550 posts)What I generally do.
Upload the image to imgbb.com
Then I get the full linked HTML. AND I copy and paste the whole thing, but delete anything but stuff between https through jpg after src="
(see note)
So, the example above is https: //i.ibb.co/fDkGc0y/Tex.jpg. where I broke it up with a white space so you can see the URL, and not get another dog.
It's not pretty but I find something that works and use it before experimenting.
If anyone has a shorter way of using imgbb.com, speak up.
sometimes "It just works" is OK enough.
HTH
note: It's actually hard for me to copy just part of that URL. So copy the whole thing and delete excess.
