Best Practices For Using Online Images Pasted From URLs

1. Ensure The URL Is Public:
   • Make sure the URL you’re pasting is public and accessible. Private or restricted URLs won’t allow the image to be pulled into SmarterQueue.
2. Verify Image Rights and Licensing: 
   • Always ensure you have the right to use an image, especially for commercial purposes. Be mindful of copyright and licensing restrictions. Learn more about content ownership and attribution.
3. Verify Image Quality:
   • Ensure the image is of high quality and appropriately sized for your social media platforms. Low-resolution images may appear pixelated when posted.
