Hi, Jay. Thanks for your response.

My Python (Ver 3.9) program does not connect to Dropbox yet. An updated line graph is produced every 65 seconds in a loop, and a .png image is saved on the raspberry pi that's running Raspberry Pi OS. The RP is connected to wifi. I'm looking for help getting those images from my rp to some free, personal website to share with the world. Maybe a Google site is the easiest, or Wordpress, or others have suggested getting a link to Google Sheets. ChatGPT told me that Dropbox could help in the sharing 🙂

You are able to store images on Dropbox and you can upload them to the site using a file request, or directly via the Dropbox API.
