Player ability to Put their own jpg's of skill/power cards in to Chat

I am playing Shadowrun 5e with a group and have some ideas for putting a visual punch into the game. 1) I am playing a Decker and when I head in to the matrix I would like to change my onscreen avatar from the outside world to the two matrix personas with out going my account profile picture and changing it there. Then everyone will need to refresh there web page to see the change each time.  2) I have some digital versions of some decker action/program cards that I think would be wick cool to put down in chat before I roll.  I do not know if this would be macro or an API that the GM needs to install. 3) I had also though of trying to edit the character sheet to place the card in chat when I roll from the character sheet. Though I think as a player of the game I am unable to edit it. Any ideas would be appreciated

What you want are the Basic Formatting options:&nbsp; <a href="https://wiki.roll20.net/Text_Chat#Basic_Formatting" rel="nofollow">https://wiki.roll20.net/Text_Chat#Basic_Formatting</a> If you have the URL of an image someplace on the web, you can display it in chat with MarkDown syntax: [x]( <a href="http://some.server.com/some/url/image.png" rel="nofollow">http://some.server.com/some/url/image.png</a> ) If the image doesn't end in .png or .jpg, you can append #.png to it (doesn't matter what the format is, this just tells the chat that it is an image): [x](<a href="http://some.server.com/some/url/image/12341?as=adsf" rel="nofollow">http://some.server.com/some/url/image/12341?as=adsf</a> #.png )
The below created as a Macro works for now. I just keep a list of the links to the spell card in a text document. Then Copy and Paste in to the Macro when It asked.&nbsp; /em shares ?{Description|an image} [image](?{URL}#.png)
I still would like to some how attach the link of the jpg to the corresponding Matrix action's dice roll.&nbsp;

Thanks, that worked. It had taken some testing to find the correct link that would work in the bbcode from Flicker. Then it being 2am, I it just all looked the same.&nbsp;
