The full filename for this image was 407352908flkaLe_fs.jpg
The URL to the image is http://community.webshots.com/photo/...07352908flkaLe
If you compare those, you'll see that parts of the filename are in the URL. Start with 407352908flkaLe_fs.jpg: drop everything after the underscore for the last part of the URL -- leaving 407352908flkaLe
Then, drop all the alpha characters from the shortened version. 407352908flkaLe becomes 407352908
The URL will always begin with http://community.webshots.com/photo/. Put these together, and you get: http://community.webshots.com/photo/407352908/407352908flkaLe

Actually, you can insert the pic's filename (sans _ph or _fs) after any Webshots Community URl and it will take you to the picture.
