Insert Images from Web Sources

You can save storage space on your web host when you insert images based on other websites. You do not have to download or upload the image files; you embed, or link, them with a URL. Sometimes, though, this can slow your page loading time or set the stage for a future broken link.

Get permission from the image owner to use the image, unless the image is in the public domain or the website gives copyright permission.
