How to get and embed single image from Google Photos?

Google photos not support use image link direcly. You can use some way to share it with Google Drive, but if you need single file you must extract file url manualy. Here are two ways to do this.

How to customize dimmensions of image

If you need to define specific image dimmensions, you can add parameter at end of url. Or define width and height in form to attach. Here is a example:

https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/XXX=w1920-h1080

This means that image resized to specific maximal size 1920×1080.

Just part of the parameter like =w1920 or =h1080 to set only max-width or max-height.

Good to known.

Please keep in mind that the image link you get is directly linked to Google Photos, so all traffic is directly linked to Google Photos.

If you need to permanently delete a shared link, turn off the photo sharing directly on Google Photos to make it useless anywhere.
