It's Code #1, not Code #2 🤣
Anyways, awesome riddles, too bad you posted #2 directly after I solved it 😵
Do you want that I describe the ways I solved the riddles?

How I solved #1:
I searched the pictures on google (you can really search the pictures but clicking on the camera at google picture search). I found the pictures on a page called xkcd, and all of them had different numbers. Also I noticed that the word "CODE" (4 letters) has two pictures and "CIPHER" (6 letters) three pictures. I splitted the words in pieces like that: CO-DE and CI-PH-ER and assumed that every block of letters is the key to one picture. Then I simply had to find out how I get the picture numbers from the letters. I noticed that ER and ET have almost the same numbers, only two apart. Like R and T in the alphabet. It was base 26, but OP is a little jerk 😝 so he added 6 on the values. So I had to take the values of the pictures, add 6 and convert it from numbers with base 26 to letters.
How I solved #3:
I guessed the words.

Final message:
Doing what OP said and entering it into encipher.it with the sentence.
