Step 3) Click on the "Media" icon and scroll down until you find the image (not the spaceball nonsense obviously). Click the "Save as" button and bam, it's on your hard drive.

I'm going to guess that this doesn't work for the 4864x2736 "o" images you guys were talking about, but if you just want a large, not hi-def, photo, this method has never failed me.

P.S. the red arrows are just a joke, not trying to imply that I know more about firefox than anyone else.
Or you can just install the "nuke anything" add-on and get access to all contents on Flickrlike sites... works brilliant everywhere!!!
