I'd really like to know how to post images from say Google photos and Google images. Also Youtube so it shows as an image and not just a link. Wiki showing an introduction to the topic.

Yes, I know it's also to ask, but I will appreciate the info. Perhaps simplify/ dumb it down a notch or two.

Images is easy if you don't want fancy.  Just wrap image tags around your photo's url lie so:

{img}Your URL here{/img}

Albeit bang in square brackets instead of the squiggly ones.
 OK. I'll try again. I'll try uploading from my PC I did as shown in your explanation last time, from Google Photos.

Now there's a thumbnail there. What do you see if anything? The photo is of my garden right now. The tree with the red flowers is native Bottle Brush. Behind that there is taller tree with bright yellow flowers. That's a native franjipani, it just grew.

Don't see it, probably because you have [img]{. Take out the curly bracket. Also, I don't think that one can upload directly from their PC, but have to use a hosting site or hot link.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.

Right. I tried to download that from Google photos. This is a major image sharing platform,. should be able to upload from there. Can't from my pc as there is no url.

Could you tell me which image sharing app youse, if any? I did not add [img] that's just how it turned out.
