You can use Overdrive to host your Drive images as follows:

• Visit a folder within your Overdrive site
• Add the image(s) you wish to use
• Click on the image to open it
• Note the url in the address bar of this page will be something like: https://intranet-demo.overdrive.io/gallery-main/61900__180.jpg/
• Edit the url to add assets/bypath/ after the website part of the url and remove the trailing / from the full url
• Your final url should look like this: https://intranet-demo.overdrive.io/assets/bypath/gallery-main/61900__180.jpg

You can append something like this to dynamically scale your images, and make your pages load faster:

?size=w50
?size=h150
