URL help (1 Viewer)

Hi All,

Can someone please tell me how I can do a URL of my photo's for sharing on the web instead of having to heavily crop them for uploading.

I am using macOS Sierra version 10.12.6

What you're looking for is an image hosting site that provides a "direct link" to a https (URL) web address. You'll need to google image hosting sites, selecting the one that meets your needs.

Not all sites are equal; some are free but have limitations, some cost money offering expanded services (HTML links, image galleries, editing features, forum auto sizing, privacy settings), all have size limitations on the uploading image/file.

Be sure to google image hosting sites with direct links.....before you do, check with your internet service provider, sometimes they have free image hosting included in your service package.

You could set up a folder in Photos that you could use as a temporary link to pics you want to share. Or even easier, how about registering for the free in the cloud Google Drive? I've seen a lot of people linking to their Flicker postings also.

Click to expand...

Flicker is the obvious one and you also have the choice here of which folders to make public and which to share selectively
