Image/YouTube Embedder & Attribution Maker
for Unsplash, Pexels, Wikimedia Commons, Pixabay, Flickr CC & YouTube
(Also works with Shutterstock, if you have a paid subscription).
A Bookmarklet to create HTML snippets to embed your selected Image or YouTube video, with proper attribution. This can then be pasted into Moodle, or any website that includes Bootstrap 4+.
For those sites NOT running Bootstrap (such as Canvas LMS) a new "Inline CSS" option is now available. This option has fewer features but will work on any website.

Advanced features only (experimental)
Each of the following layouts combine multiple images into the one display.
These images are drawn from your recent history (newest first). Up to 12 images will be used. You can drag the slider at the top to set the number of images.
Carousel
Tiles
Tiles (as Cover images)
Setting the tiles with Cover images has the advantage that each tile is 'cropped' to exactly the same aspect-ratio (16:9), focussed on the center of the image. This way, if you have images of different aspect ratios (eg. landscape, portrait, square) they are all displayed the same.
This ensures a more uniform layout, but the tradeoff is the HTML is more complicated and it is much more you need to be more careful when you swap out images (eg, in Moodle)
Image wall
Images are displayed in three columns, in a masonry pattern. This can be useful if you have images of different dimensions (eg. a mix of landscape and portrait)
You may need to play with the order of images, in order to get a layout that looks pleasing. Use the 'Let me choose which images to use' feature and select the images in the order that you want them displayed (down the columns, then across)
Responsive YouTube video embed
This provides dynamic YouTube embed code, complete with title, optional description, playtime and attribution. This video is responsive and will always fit 100% of it's container
Use these settings to customise the look and feel of the YouTube video.
[Optional] Set the start and/or end time.
Play the video to establish these timings, then click "match current playtime" when you have hit your preferred start or end time.
