I have a question, this is great and everything, but what if I want to host a full width image? I don't want thumbnail size, I want to host a Jumbotron gif image, our company's CMS has a very limited file size which doesn't account for animated gifs.
for full width image replace 'thumbnail' with 'uc' in the URL.
drive.google.com/uc?id=14hz3ySPn-z...
