It can be a bit confusing at first, but worth the effort now that it’s well supported.
I have a couple of examples here for image galleries.

Does anyone who uses lorempixel.com notice they have changed their domain to non-www. ?
I could not work out why the images would not show in these pens, until I visited the site and saw the sample URLs. Seems they did not make a redirect, so I had to edit out the www.s from all the images in these pens.
