FAQ Posting Photos from Microsoft's OneDrive

[Mike]

There are two ways of doing it, both of which revolve around the "View Original" button in the top of your OneDrive screen.

• Click View Original, and copy the link with a right-click Copy Link Location
• 1st Method, Click the image button, and paste in (CTRL+V) your link, removing the ? and everything after it. See the code below for an example OneDrive link.
• 2nd Method, Paste the image code into an IMG tag using the raw editor, as below again removing the? and everything after it.

Your IMG tag starts out like this:

[img=]

Pasting in the link after the = symbol leads to this:

Deleting everything after the question-mark results in:

Note the missing "?psid=1" - that confuses the forum software, and is typical Microsoft.

Don't paste that link into your browser if you're a bit squeamish, as it's a picture I happened on that was hosted on OneDrive. It's a hand with a bit of a cut in it, covered in plasters. You're going to do it now, aren't you?
