using google photos on here

Thought this may be of use to folks on here now the likes of photobucket seem to be going down the pan

its possible, with the help of a third party website to generate code for embedding your google photos on here, or any other website for that matter.

firstly, select your google photo on the photos.google.com

then click the share button and select create link

once you've copied that link head over to here : https://www.labnol.org/embed/google/photos/

paste your link in the box on this page and click generate - i used the top one of the links it created - its quite long so make sure you copy the lot.

insert on here as usual:

one thing to note - the code ends in 'w2400' - this turns out to be the width of the image - using preview on here confirmed it was waaaaaaaaaaaaaay too wide so i changed it for 'w800' and it seems spot on.

hope this helps folks

Way to clever for me, but thanks.
