This is using Windows 7.

1. Go to Google Photos (I use the Windows App)

2. Select the image by left clicking on it to just show that image

3. Right click over the image

4. Select copy "copy image address"

5. Within FSM in new reply field select "Inserst/Edit Image"

6. Paste the copied information into the "source" field and un-select the constrainimage

Done.

Hi, I wanted to say tks again for your help. I kept trying Google and it just didnt want to cooperate. I ended up using fotki and its working with no issues.  I spent a good bit of time in Australia when I was in the Navy. Loved it and New Zealand, only other places in the world I would live or travel too.   Dale

Its all good Dale.

Sorry we couldn't get it to work for you, but on the flip side you found a solution that works.

Funny as it sounds, but I have never been to the land of the land grey cloud (s) aka NZ. I did spend 12 mounths in Indian as a child which was over 4 decades ago, I still have fond memories off my time.

I hope you get a chance to come back to Australia again someday, there is alot to see and do, just watch out for the drop bears...
