Maybe I'm stupid or something but if I want to show an image I saw posted on this forum to someone outside the forum without having to link the whole page and make them scroll through it, how do I do it?  Usually I right click and copy the image URL on other sites, but on here right click just enlarges the image.

 

Edit: Son of a bitch, I figured it out literally 30 seconds after posting this.

Not sure which browsers you're using but on Chrome right click - "copy image URL" is the way. It's left click that enlarges the image.

 

If you're wanting to link to a specific post btw you can click the #216 in the right hand corner of a post and it'll pop up a box with the posts specific URL.

I always thought it was stupid that you have to click save to get the URL. That's not very intuitive.

Dean directions for Chrome is correct but I suspect MJ and I use Firefox. The steps are:

 

Click on image > Click on the save button (Opens a new tab) > Right click save > Close tab

 

Its only a few more clicks and 2-3 more seconds but you know how us internet folks are. Efficiency. If it can be changed, great but if not then no big deal. Life goes on.

Oh yeah, I just tested it and in Firefox when you right-click it brings up the lightbox for some reason.

 

That's stupid, but it's a Firefox issue.  Chrome, IE, and Opera all let you right-click on the image in the actual post without opening the lightbox.
