Create Embeddable Links for Google Photos Extension

Google Photos is a great product, but it has a big weakness: It provides no mechanism to create easy to use links to your photos for sharing outside of Google Plus/Photos. This extension fixes that by providing context (right-click) menu options to create simple embeddable links (including BBCode style) to your photo, with optional resizing.

When you select \"Copy Image Link\" and either embeddable or BBCode link from the context menu, the extension will create the appropriate link text and place it on your clipboard, ready for you to paste into a message or forum post etc. It works with most any online system that can process typical image links.

Felipe (ID: 00000034763b5020) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 10/05/2018 I do not know why this extension does not have evaluations. Maybe it's because the title is not very clear, but it does just what I need, it generates a direct link for the images in google photos, perfect. No se por que no tiene evaluaciones esta extensión. Tal vez sea porque el título no es muy claro, pero hace justo lo que necesito, genera un enlace directo para las imágenes de google fotos, perfecto.
