    I can confirm experiencing the same as laramie LC4 over the last few weeks. I have not changed how I am sharing the images since getting it working consistently back in February. Two things I have tried to eliminate the problem over the last few weeks are creating a shareable link (though I don't use it) and making sure I leave the picture and navigate back to it. Not sure if either helps, but I am now on a run of a few pictures that have stayed shared after weeks of intermittent success again.

    On the bright side, my pics/links are not held hostage by some greedy bastards (yet) ;-)

    ok, 45 mins, logged out, and pic is still here. might have cracked this nut.

    when you open google photo's there are several buttons on the left side to select what you see. assistant, photo's, albums, sharing, and photo books. i had been adding my pics to the shared album, then clicking on "albums", then choosing the shared album, then clicking on pics and copy, paste. it appears as though you instead need to start in "sharing" and then follow the same procedure and pull the link from there.

    cross fingers.

    laters,
