Yeppers. The inline image display only requires images to be stored on the Web. The only reason I recommend Photobucket is because they are reliable and the system is easy to use and understand.

There are two tutorials linked below. Also some like to use MS Office Picture Manager, but that is no longer in Windows since version 10 I believe. You can download MS SharePoint from the MS store and install Picture Manager from that download.
