I’ve found an even better way to get the biggest-sized photos from flickXr.
Using the 2 versions of the photo below as an example, using the tetrak74 1.0 method of opening View Page Source, then finding the hotlinked photo listed after the hotlinked n.jpg photo, we get:
c1.staticflickr.com/9/8487/8224590032_942c017c32_h.jpg
This is a decent size, 1290 x 725 pixels.
However, if we select a few more occurrences of n.jpg, we get to a list where all the sizes of the photo are listed. They’re listed from the smaller – s.jpg, m.jpg – to the larger – b.jpg, h.jpg, k.jpg, and sometimes o.jpg. To the left of the file names, the width and height for each file is listed.
These file names aren’t hotlinked. You’ll need to manually copy them, then edit the file name listed on View Page Source.
For this photo, the largest size listed is k.jpg. On View Page Source, it’s listed as:
c1.staticflickr.com\/9\/8487\/8224590032_dc1750c3b8_k.jpg
Note that the last block of the k.jpg name is different from the h.jpg name above.
9/8487/8224590032_
942c017c32_h.jpg
9\/8487\/8224590032_
dc1750c3b8_k.jpg
If you simply replace h.jpg with k.jpg:
c1.staticflickr.com/9/8487/8224590032_942c017c32
_h.jpg, then
c1.staticflickr.com/9/8487/8224590032_942c017c32
_k.jpg
You don’t get a bigger photo, you get a “file not found”.
Back to the k.jpg version. The \/ parts don’t look good. Simply delete each back slash “\” and keep each forward slash “/”. After this edit, you get:
c1.staticflickr.com/9/8487/8224590032_dc1750c3b8_k.jpg
For this photo, it’s not a huge difference, going from h.jpg to k.jpg. I wanted to use a safe example. You’ll get bigger contrasts elsewhere. For my preceding Mexico City posts, tetrak74 1.0 would have gotten c.jpg sized pics, around 500x700 pixels. tetrak74 2.0 got the bigger k.jpg sized pics, 2048x1520 pixels. Especially for newer photos, 2.0 will get you the much sought-after o.jpgs, 4000x3000 pixels and up.
I know that many OCCers use add-ons/apps that do this and a lot more. That’s great. The one thing about this method is that you can do it directly from flickXr itself.
