Can images be made to display in main window from an url?

I'm trying to display a nice image on the main screen, from an url without uploading the image to roll 20.

I can get the images into the chat window, but they are too small.

Is there a way to jump them onto the table? Or into a handout?

I do not think you can display external images from the VTT. However, any image you display in chat is a clickable link to that image and will open in a new tab/window at full resolution.

External images can be used in handouts, but the only way I do it is with an API, Stephen S's remarkable Markdown script.

That's about what I thought. Was just hoping you pro's would know a work-around lol. I shall fall back on uploading first then, and use the methods in  one of your other posts. tyvm :D
