Is it possible to create your own dataset that includes links to images?

The Random Forecaster App in Unit 05, Lesson 12 uses icons that are provided by links. I have tried to create a dataset that also includes icons and I placed them in a shared good drive. While the icon link is present I get an error.

Error: Line: 9 "There is no property named "[https://drive.google.com](https://drive.google.com) . . . "

So while the code sees the link, it does not seem to want to be displayed.  
Using console log shows that the link is present in the list.

I see a couple of possible problems:

1. My code is wrong
2. I have linked the images incorrectly
3. Perhaps only certain image formats are accepted
4. Maybe a user created dataset cannot include images
5. Perhaps I need to use something other than a shared google drive.

Any help from others who have created datasets with a column including image links would be helpful

I don’t have a definitive answer, but I have two thoughts… first might be that you need to make the drive file available to all - perhaps double check your share settings? The second is that I believe all [code.org](http://code.org) is storing in a dataset is the url as a string. I don’t see why that wouldn’t be something you can do as well! Have you tried to create a sample dataset with images hosted elsewhere online (ie. pixabay or another easy access tool) to try to pinpoint the location of the error?
