Show And "NO" Tell

I ran into this issue when using the monster manual and I don't want to run into this issue when I use my NPC's. Is there a way to show just the avatar of the character or monster on the screen without showing all the stats? I wanted my characters to see what the hag looked like in all her glory, but the only way I could let them see the image was to "Show Players" and that showed them the pic as well as the stats. I just want to show the image of the monster or NPC without divulging stats.  Is this possible?
Hiya, if you got a pic or a token ready on the gm-layer you can choose it and then press shift-z to show it to everyone. Very handy.
I delete the stats off from the Bio and Info section and move them to the GM notes. If you show to players, they cannot see the character sheet, just the Bio and Info. Are you sure you're not giving them edit control? I show this here in my review of the monster manual for Roll20 and Fantasy Grounds. The link is at the point in the video where I discuss this.

I've been putting the monster pictures into the chat window. If you right click on the image from the bio page of the monster sheet, you can "copy link address". Then cut and paste it into the chat widow as follows: [MonsterName](<a href="http://www.monsterlink.jpg" rel="nofollow">www.monsterlink.jpg</a>) In order for this to work, you have to delete the question mark and everything to the right of it from the link address.

Kirsty, that would make a very simple Stupid Trick . Especially if you suggested making that a character ability.
