New member here, just thought I would start sharing my work with the community. Comments are always welcome. The following are samples of things I've done in the past and going forward, I'll be posting samples of current things I'm working on as well.







New work:

I only wish the images would show up in the posts...hopefully everyone can see these.

Looks great!

I am sure one of the mods could be of help making the pictures appear here.

There is a size limit to the width of the images you can add. I'm pretty sure that is 2000px. So long as you fit with that limit then you would need to do:

[ img]WebAddressOfImage[/img ]

obviously without the spaces, which I've added so you can see the code. Alternatively paste your URL, highlight it and then press the image button on the full editor.

The URL must be a reference to a picture that can be shown in a website (.jpg or .png), rather than the links you have provided, which are links to a webpage that shows a jpg file.

OK the URL you need to use is as follows:

https://drive.google.com/thumbnail?id=
followed by your image ID,
followed by &sz=w1000-h1000

The first line generates a thumnail.
The ID tells it which file to show
The last line provides the size to show w1000 is width 1000, h1000 height 1000. Aspect ratio is preserved so it would be 1000 px on the longest side.

An example. Your first image has an ID of 1XZy5jpfz33tZThDZZxfwE3V4k8kQO-Zo, which is the part after the /d/ and before the /view?...

The url becomes:
https://drive.google.com/thumbnail?id= 1XZy5jpfz33tZThDZZxfwE3V4k8kQO-Zo &sz=w1000-h1000
again without the spaces:

then wrap the line in [ img ][ /img ]
[ img]https://drive.google.com/thumbnail?id= 1XZy5jpfz33tZThDZZxfwE3V4k8kQO-Zo &sz=w1000-h1000[/img ]

removing all the spaces you get:


You can increase the w1000 and h1000 unto 2000 but it will not fit a lot of monitors. For 1200 you get &sz=w1200-h1200 on the end.


You can provide a link to the full size also:
[ url = full like here as you have already ][ img ] thumnail like here [ /img ][ /url ]



Welcome and hope that helps.
Ian

ps. I've just edited your first post to show you the result in full. (as the admin I'm the only person who could do that, other than you obviously). You can now edit that post and see what the result is and apply it to your other images.

Nice, Ian. And thank you, Trekspaces, for sharing.

OK, even better. I've added a GoogleDriveImage tag. You can now paste your id (example 1XZy5jpfz33tZThDZZxfwE3V4k8kQO-Zo), highlight it and hit the GoogleDriveImage button.

[ GoogleDriveImage ]1XZy5jpfz33tZThDZZxfwE3V4k8kQO-Zo[ /GoogleDriveImage ]

Obviously without the spaces.

I've edited my original post, so I think the google image tag worked, thanks. Now, if only I can get notifications from the posts I made. I missed all the previous ones until I got curious to see if anyone happened to see my topic post.
