Flankr7 and any others who haven't found this trick out: When there is no "see all sizes" button to click, you can sometimes (not always) still get a higher-res version. Whether because they halfway figured it out or just out of sheer cussedness, it isn't as straightforward as it might be, because if you try to do it from the regular-size image page you get the dreaded "spaceball." What you need to do is right-click, not on "save picture as" but on "properties" to get the url of the file. As I say, on the picture itself it doesn't work (at least not for me) but if you go back to the thumbnail, either in the search or the photoset page, you can get it there. Use that url, but substitute for the "_s" or "_t" (just before ".jpg") either "_b" or more rarely "_o" for a really big one. Only if both come back with the "image not available" box is there no (that I can find) larger one. Hope that helps, and anyone who has further figured this out please feel free to expand.
