• Hi. Okay, I got an install of WordPress 4.0.1.
    I want a gallery, but I do NOT want to upload the images. I want the raw image files somewhere else and not on the website hosting servers.

    Is there a way or a gallery plugin that allows me to have a gallery of thumbnails, lightboxes, etc. without uploading the image and just providing the image URL of where it is stored? Such as an image URL on a cloud storage.

    UPDATE:
    Before anyone asks Why I want to do this.
    Well, I got the $1 hosting package at WHW1 and even though it is fantastic and provides plenty of storage for pretty much any other site I do and other sites of mine, my expectations are that this new gallery type of site can become really really massive (tens of thousands of super large images) in storage space, inodes, etc., and so WHW1 hosting might end up being limited. I could simply pay an extra $1, but I figured why not get the best of both worlds. The perfect hosting at WHW1 and Free storage provided by cloud space. Hehe. ?? Plus I can have them (being the images) archived at multiple clouds.

    I hope that helps the understanding of why I want it or what I am looking for.
