Google Drive doesn’t directly provide a properly linked url to a file stored there, you have to edit the shared url yourself in order for the file to display, or download for outside of google drive.

• Ensure the image file you want is shared as “Anyone with the link” or “Public on the web”

• Get the sharing link:

https://drive.google.com/open?id=1_NPfCfgpq75RWAyKl8asKQU3hcnjUu4e

or

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1_NPfCfgpq75RWAyKl8asKQU3hcnjUu4e/view?usp=share_link

• Replace     “open?”    with     “uc?export=download&“

• Or  replace "file/d/" with      “uc?export=download&id=“ then delete "/view?usp=share_link"

• Your url should now look like this:

https://drive.google.com/uc?export=download&id=1_NPfCfgpq75RWAyKl8asKQU3hcnjUu4e

• Your image should now display.  Just using the link in the browser address bar may offer a download, if this is an issues replace “download” with “view“

• The above edited link displayed:

This may also work with just uc?id=
