Paul,
You have disabled photo downloads, so it's a bit more complicated, but it's still possible. Exactly how you do it depends on your browser (and your operating system). In Firefox, Internet Explorer, or Chrome follow the bolded part of Cody's instructions.
Go to your photo on Flickr
Right click on the photo
Choose one of the available sizes
Right click on the image thus displayed and go to View Image Info
The filename will be in the page you get
Copy and paste the file location. It will look something like http....farm5.static.flickr.com/4078/4867436968_8abf66dd71_b.jpg
Then, in Firefox, after you right click, select "
View Page Info", then click on the "
Media" button in the new window that pops up. That gives you a list of all the images on the page. Select the one that ends in .jpg (there is a preview pane). Right click on that, and you will get the "copy" option. The rest works the same as before.
You can do it in Internet Explorer, but It's a bit trickier. There's no "View Page Info" option, so you have to select "
View Source". That shows you the HTML for the whole page. You then have to scroll down to find the actual image address. (Don't be fooled by the one near the top: it's just a thumbnail. You have to go way down to find the larger version.)
Chrome has different options: not as easy as Firefox, but easier than IE. The right click option is called "
Inspect element". That splits your window, with the lower half as the inspection pane. Click the "
Resources" button and scroll down to find your image. From that resource list, right click on the
image preview That will give you a "
copy image URL" option, which allows you to do this:
It also gives you a "save image as" option which is what you were trying to prevent in the first place. :? Oh well, the only way to really protect from copying is to scar the image with some big ugly watermark so that no one would want it.
BTW, nice image!
