It’s also possible to free up some of your account’s space by shrinking the size of photos by dropping them to “storage saver quality.” Its storage management tools allow you to delete large photos and videos in bulk and get rid of screenshots and blurry photos. And pictures can be siphoned off into albums (it was too late for me). You can archive photos if you don’t want to delete them or keep them in your main photo library. Google has some tools to help you manage your photos. Before I started deleting everything, I’d used up around 80 GB of storage I’ve decreased this to about 60 GB. Plus, practically speaking, there’s now more space in my Google account. Now I plan on sorting the most recent photos once a year.

In another 10 years, I may have taken an extra 20,000 to 40,000 photos. If I had waited another few years, the task would have been too daunting to even start. Once sorted, it has been easier to find specific events and the best photos from them. Ever-expanding cloud storage makes it possible to keep taking photos and adding to the pile. Your images are not saved anywhere, nor does that app keep a record of them.But there are other reasons to spend some time clearing up your photos. If you provide a link to a Google Photos album, the cover image will be used linking to the underlying album. The embed tool only works for single images on Google Photos and not photo albums. It uses Google's Puppeteer library to download the photos page, extracts the oembed meta tags and converts the URL into an HTML tag for embedding. The Google Photos app is running on Google Cloud Run. Paste that Google Photos link in the box below to generate the HTML embed code. Go to, open any picture and click Share > Create Link to get a shareable link of that image. The HTML code can be used with Gmail Mail Merge, HTML Mail, Google Forms Notifications, File Upload Forms or anywhere else where you wish to embed the raw Google Photos image.

You have been using Google Photos to backup your photos to the cloud but Google offers no option for you to embed the uploaded pictures on to your website.
