Can I link directly to an extra large image on Flickr?

Re: Really big images
Hey Kalt,
Can you explain what you did there. I use flickr's BBC option, which allows clicking on the image to see a larger version--but that version isn't that much larger.
TIA

Re: Really big images
From Flickr's single image view, click the 'Download this photo' icon in the lower right then select 'View all sizes'.
Click on 'Original' then right click the image that loads and select 'Copy image URL'.
Paste URL into your editor window on OH.org.
Go back to Flickr and select the image size that you want to use for the inline preview, I used Medium800. Right click that image and 'Copy image URL' again.
Paste that URL into your editor window too.
The bbcode format for getting it to work is:
For bonus points try to find the tent.
Click on 'Original' then right click the image that loads and select 'Copy image URL'.
