 * I did some scouring of this forum and it looks like I may be out of luck but 
   I figured it was worth asking. I have an asset link to an image hosted externally
   that I wanted to be opened in the lightbox. Code looks like below:
 * `<a rel="slb" href="https://chart.googleapis.com/chart?cht=qr&chs=300x300&chl
   =1HoosqwrwGSEgorqnaQarmz5DcUTYWBSJd">`
 * Am I correct in thinking this plugin won’t be able to handle this sort of implementation?
 * Thanks!

 * Hi, external images are fully supported by SLB. However, the URI in your link
   is not a standard image file (e.g. PNG, JPG, GIF, etc.), so it will require an
   add-on for support.
 * I’ve added this to the list of URI types to support in the future.
