Use Amazon AWS
In order to download any file, not just images, documents, etc. you will need a service like this. It was a pain to set up, but seems to be worth it. The S3 storage option has a free option that gives you 5 GB of data, plenty to test service. The pricing is incredible complex, so I do not plan on going past the free limits.
Once I got it up and all the public setting correct it works as advertised.

Very Carefully follow the instructions.
1. you must sign up with a credit card, but you can pick the free option. It was a pain.
2. S3 is NOT Glacier S3 . Make sure you pick the S3 option.
3. Make sure you set ‘Make Public’ in Object Actions at upper right after uploading a file.
