For testing the forum interface. A place where newbies can post test messages. Nothing informative here.

If you right-click on a flickr photo you get a little pop-up for the various sizes of the photo that are available. Choose one. On the next page you can right-click the photo and choose "copy image URL" or "copy image address" (the language varies from browser to browser). Now you have the direct photo link.

Hope that makes sense! :)
Perfect sense, thanks! That is (at least) one click quicker than going to that "View All Sizes" link first.

Just wish there were a predictable pattern to the URLs, so I could construct the links without all the clicks in the first place. That remains just about the only real advantage I see in Photobucket over Flickr.
