    Apologies. I did dive into this and it appears OneDrive changed something in the way things are linked. It appears to be an effort to discourage imbedding pictures on sites. Ultimately I think they figure if they are hosting a picture, they want the traffic to their actual site vs just giving up free bandwidth.

    Bummer. Have you tried imgur?

    Yeah just tried on phone with Google photos same result, blank. Switched to OneDrive some time ago when Google stopped working. All my past posts with photos are now pooched. Don't really wish to start over with yet another photo hosting service. Thx for looking into this. C'est la vie in our digital world. Maybe I'll give the native HBC gallery another go but space is limited here.

    Re: Photo Embedding

    I can still share photos via hyperlink by pasting it after copying from the cloud service using the share option. I did that in the As They Lay thread recently. I'm concerned about my account getting hacked or someone browsing around in there beyond the photo I link to by doing this though. Even though I ensure 'view only' privilege, someone might find more details, which I'd rather not have happen.

    The </> Embed option still available in the menu on OneDrive & procedure hasn't changed, but when I use the Insert Image option here nothing appears after I finish.

    Again thx for your efforts, appreciated.
