Answer 1

public void OnStart()
{
    StartCoroutine(setImage("http://drive.google.com/myimage.jpg")); 
}

IEnumerator setImage(string url) 
{
    Texture2D texture = null;
    WWW www = new WWW(url);
    yield return www;

    Debug.Log("Why on earh is this never called?");
    texture = WWW.texture;
    //end show Image in texture 2D
}
