What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Go to a website
2. Right click on an image > Copy Image ( it is like this in Firefox at least)
3. Hit Zscreen upload combination, it reports successful upload and the link is 
in the clipboard.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Below is the reported link:
http://www.flickr.com/photos/12725046@N00/5772568275/sizes/z/

compared to the real link to that image:

For the first link you will get an error, as I already deleted the file, but 
I'm sure you get it and you can try it with your flickr account.

Sorry this is not possible because the Flickr API does not allow that. We would 
have of course linked to the direct image just like for any other image hosting 
service if this was possible. Why not just for Flickr.

When you upload image to flickr it returning only image id.
Like this: 5772568275
So we using userid and creating this url manually:
http://www.flickr.com/photos/{userid}/{imageid}/sizes/o
We know too direct url is better but we can't get it.

To make it further clearer, the random alpha numeric text _4b0a2dcd53_z in your 
example is not possible to generated using current API information.

"Why not just for Flickr" - I have only checked with flickr so I wouldn't know 
that :)

"To make it further clearer, the random alpha numeric text _4b0a2dcd53_z in 
your example is not possible to generated using current API information." - Got 
it :) thanks. What a shame :(
