 * Hi,
 * Is there any way that I can use external storage like Google Drive or Dropbox
   or anything else to store the photos as my provider wants to restrict my local
   storage?

 * Cloudinary is supported. This helps for faster loads, not really for less local
   storage. And, this will also cost money when you have more than a basic system.
 * The best thing is upgrade your hosting contract.
    Alteratively delete the `.../
   wp-content/uploads/wppa-source` folder if you do not really need the original
   files on the host.

 * THanks Jacob, I will delete the folder and see how much that gets me.
