Hi Everyone, 

I am working on teaching my high school students how to create Story Maps using an example on ESRI's website (link).   The example provides the images in a zip file, which does not work great for Chromebooks (nevermind the limited hard drive space), so I put the images on my Google Drive and provided links.  At first the links were working when I used the method (link) shared by RaúlJiménez_Ortega, but when I reopened the Story Map, there were grey boxes where the images were supposed to be.  In addition, some of the students could not get the links to work from the links in the first place, while others could.  I have spent a significant amount of time researching this to find no good solution.  Many of the previous solutions were with Classic Story Maps, so I am not sure if that has something to do with it.  I also tried using Google Photos with no luck.  It would be great to use Google Drive, as this is the main source of storage for many students that will be building Story Maps at the high school level

Thank you for your time, 

Josh
