        If Dir(filepath & c.Value & ".jpg") <> "" Then img = filepath & c.Value & ".jpg"
        If img <> "" Then
          Set shp = Me.Shapes.AddPicture(img, msoFalse, msoTrue, .Left, .Top, 200, 200)
          shp.Name = imgName
          shp.ScaleHeight 1, msoTrue
          shp.ScaleWidth 1, msoTrue
          shp.LockAspectRatio = msoTrue
          shp.Height = c.Cells(1).Height - 4
          shp.Left = .Left + ((.Width - shp.Width) / 2)
          shp.Top = .Top + ((.Height - shp.Height) / 2)
        End If
      End With
    Next
  End If
  Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

Please help me to fix this code. I try many times but still did not work.

what was the result of , there might be security access issues similar to pic .
Have you also check if you can manually insert a picture from the sharepoint using the URL li0.sharepoint.com/sites/Lux-Qtr/SC/Stock%20Pictures/NOPHOTO.jpg to see if there is any security or additional popup prompts
insert manually Picture1.jpg


try a test with an other site make
VBA Code:
 Const filepath As String = "https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/4/43/"
and add to sheet2 cell C2
Excel Formula:
Microsoft_SharePoint

if with this site and below changes, and its working then its a site/security/authentications issue



should be ,
VBA Code:
url = Replace(url, " ", "&20")
this is to replace any spaces " " with "%20" in the url
