Img & web server or personal info

Question

While writing the url on img tag the info/img is taken from the web server. So can't i take the img/info from my phone or other personal things if yes how can i write the url... If no why?

Answer 1

Light the easiest way is to upload your image from your phone at imgbb.com and they create a nice img url for you to copy and paste to use where you need it.

There are ofcourse other hosting services but imgbb.com is very user friendly.

Answer 2

your phone image is not publicly available. You are not uploading anything when you add a link to your image. It's just a link. Other people's browsers and Sololearn app cannot connect and access the data in your phone or pc. That's why you have to find a service that you can upload your image to and provides a publicly available url in return. But you are effectively giving them your pic as an exchange.
