I tried to use Google photos for a couple of pictures but can't seem to make them public. There is a way to share to an individual but not apparently to "public". Imagine a picture of a white cow named Shark. I may have to use a different photo sharing app or maybe codepen Pro.

Love it!!! Everything looks great in the HTML. As for the image, it looks like that URL produces a 404 error. It's possible it's the wrong URL, but maybe it has more to do with permissions? It's a private image to you but not public for me? Usually an absolute URL in the <img> tag works fine in CodePen. In any case, thanks for sharing - everything looks great!

I may have just changed the folder permissions so the photo might show now. If not, I will keep at it. Thanks.

Another thought -- unless that is the URL for the actual image, it may not work correctly. I still get the 404 error with https://photos.google.com/photo/AF1QipOU3t4q9slZzy_YNmbiI_3-mBrHbZd1jCVMqR4k

See if you can get something that ends in .jpg maybe?...

There is a way to do this that is surprising and someone wrote a codepen to convert the image URL to make it work. See my answer again for an example and explanation. Maybe there are other tricks to sharing Google Drive (and probably works for Google photos ,too).

Will do -- thank you for the pointer!

🌈🌈🌈🦄🦄🦄 Looks great! You might want to put the <cite> on the poem name rather than the author, but everything else looks awesome!

I saw the Demon Slayer movie last week, so I was excited to incorporate that in this challenge. Also, I'm hosting my image using Lensdump, and it seems to work okay!

Today I have no time for the challenge. Instead, I have applied it in my work:

Using <figure> had an unexpected side effect:

default margins are too large for small screens.

I had to correct this behavior.

Fair enough! No one ever accused HTML of having awesome default styling. Changing the margin isn't a big deal and shouldn't keep you from using the element. 😄

The images looked smaller and it took me two days to find the cause!

Once you know the cause it's easy... but the discovery could a headache.

So I learned several lessons from this figure tag :)
