Photo posting with Google Photos

I use Google Photos across all my devices, and I love it. TubeNet's BBcode, not so much.

I used to use Photobucket years ago for forums, but it looks to have sold out and become Spambucket to survive..
Anywho, what are all the photo posters using these days?
Or am I missing some trick/workaround with Google photos?

Example Google share URL that is not working inside the "img" tags:
https://goo.gl/photos/k1TFgManA2XQSTmU9" target="_blank" target="_blank

You're not alone that stuff always confuses me too. But I still use Photobucket and love it. Yeah there's ads now but that's with everything these days unless you buy a subscription.

Look up photo uploaded to Google Photos. It may need to be expanded, (click a second time) before you get the copy image message instead of copy link.

Right click on photo.

"Copy image location"

paste in between this;

(appears when you click on the box labeled Img)

and get this;

Thanks 3v, I'll give that a try.
20J I find the current level of spam ads and especially pop ups and redirects to make Photobucket almost unusable for viewers.

I agree. It takes me forever to edit photos because the ads slow everything down.

I find imgur satisfactory for this purpose.
