problems uploading images

[Mariana Hernandez]

We are having problems uploading images into our game.  We tried saving to google drive and then inserting but it is not  working.

Hi Mariana. Are you doing Bootstrap:Algebra in WeScheme? Just want to check because we support multiple platforms, etc.

Yes,  we are doing bootstrap in Wescheme.  We have most of the game done, some students wanted to go back and change their characters and our tip of downloading the image and then inserting from drive is not working.  I can do it on my MacBook but not on Chromebooks.

Hi Mariana - Can you say more about what's not working? The usual steps for including an image from drive are:

1. Click the "Images" button
2. A modal window pops up, showing you all the publicly-accessible images stored in your Drive
3. Click on the image you want
4. Click "select"

Which step breaks down for you? And if there's an error message, can you screenshot it or copy it here?

Thanks!

We can follow all those steps.  the bitmap/url image is inserted, we add the closing () And then nothing.

Hi Mariana,

I'm a Bootstrap teacher with a school Google Domain. I tried some different combinations to see if I could duplicate what you are seeing. 

I was able to insert images where I was the owner (regardless of whether the permissions were public or private) and where I was not the owner but had edit permissions on the folder containing the image.

The only time I got the same "unable to load" message that you are seeing was when I was not the owner and only had viewing permissions.

Is there any chance this situation might apply to the image you are using? Can you add an image where you are the owner to a program created with your account?

Caveat: This only applies to running a program when you are logged in. To share a program the image would definitely need an image that is viewable to the public. On my school domain students do not have the option to share files publicly outside of the domain, so we could not use the insert from drive option.

Based on the screenshot you shared (thanks!!), I think Eric is right on the money. Let us know when you have a chance to investigate the sharing permissions?

Another thing you can do to test this is to copy the exact image URL that's in WeScheme, then open a private/incognito window and try pasting it in. If a private browser can access the image, WeScheme should be able to. And if it can't, then it's definitely a sharing settings issue.
