Don't know why, but I can never see your photos.

I can straight away with the link on this table top computer. I can also see them with my phone - just checked, no problem at all. Open to all - not locked to any specific group. Maybe your phone settings need tweeking? Ask in a phone shop in Skipton - if nothing else, they can show you my pics on one of their phones There's also a library with computers in Skipton, on the High Street near the church/castle.

I use a Samsung tablet.
The link tells me it's your photos but doesn't show them.

Lazy fox only posts a link to his Google cloud. Doesn't listen to his elders and betters who have told him how to do it. Google Direct Drive Link. Since then I have started using TapaTalk some of the time, easy to post photos via that, no messing with links. Get it sorted Foxy, next time you are driving along a long straight bit of road will do.

I dunno what Google Direct Drive Link is - 'Google Drive' I have used for short videos. There's nought wrong wi' me Google Photos link. Of course, I can select pics and post them direct here via 'imgur' - but there's little point in this case.

That's for Google Drive, not Google Photos. Anyway, I have posted Google drive links here before with no problem - I'll see if I have any in a moment.... here's the only video I have, it's of the engine starting - I posted this a few weeks ago, Gazza said the alternator belt could do with tightening and I had a go and think it is tighter. Does this link work (straight from Google Drive)? drive.google.com/file/d/1-oAE_AL4e4_xHmqSRgR6cGjszGnJ5d_6/view?usp=sharingWell, yes it does, but you have to copy it and paste it onto a new window - but I don't see the harm in that.

Just paste the long link into the link creator and it gives you an instantly viewable link. I don't know why Google make it so fiddly and not give us a direct link in the first place. But, as I said, I now use TapaTalk, going to post some pics of the Monty now.

Works straight away for me on a Mac. The link leads straight to the video which you start viewing by clicking the central arrow. No problem and no copying and pasting. Roger

Roger That link works for me too, but why not just have the video display here, without the intervening link.

I suppose that you could but I am so used to clicking links if I wish to view the material that is referred to that I don't give it a second thought. Roger

But they do - the link I gave to a set of my photos (mainly for dogless) is simply: share this album with copyable link - so you just click on the copy button and paste it wherever you like. Oh well.... another 5 years and everything will be different. 5G network coming to Finland soon, so the News said this morning.

No they don't they give you a link which has to be clicked to view the pics, the link creator allows us viewers just to look at the pics directly in the post without the click and going to your shared photos folder to look at them.
