The original and the possible
Trying out Google's Blogger instead of Wordpress. Not sure if this allows hotlinking into Google Photos but that is the one reason why looking at alternatives instead of Wordpress where https://syzgem.sg is hosted. I guess the answer is yes but only from the same account (and I have never figured out how to consolidate all the photos into one account). Try to hotlink from other Google Photo account Does not work :-\ even though link https://photos.google.com/share/AF1QipOOuApmiJicvx9oms-J3rUZ-bpQK5wDe428pjsaiZNHChltqQKVZMAxHzJXlsdaCQ/photo/AF1QipNglsS95tZxsEoXGJ52SrLJJfdv_MMMvv7EhZh3 does work. Back to Wordpress then, I suppose. But I do like how it does work (as long as the photo resides on the same Google account are used for blog and photos).
