        @ankonaskiff17 address: and ipWhitelist are not in any of your posts above

        i set address: my machine address 192.168.2.106
        and it failed with a macthing URL

        I still had ipWhitelist set as default, which prevented connect from other than localhost

        changed to ipWhitelist:[]
        and ip address url works and from a different machine…

              @sdetweil Wasn’t in vain. Thanks for the help. Image pretty washed out in photo but have some opacity and gradient and looks better in person.

                @ankonaskiff17 Nice… I use an updated MMM-ImagesPhotos to show my photos from my server machine, images on an external 5tb drive.
                https://github.com/sdetweil/MMM-ImagesPhotos

                and I have a module that allows you to scan a QR from your phone and upload a pic to whatever storage area u want , then the image displayer can use it…

                  @sdetweil I have a ton of pictures from rocket launches to elk in Rockies. I somehow or another had found Dak Board and piddled with it but it was a subscription based system that MagicMirror puts to shame.
