Link does not work for me. does not even look right?
It is terribly formatted. Two open parens, a bang '!', and a $
(lead in for an environment variable in unix, not to metnion the double
tildes. :-)
Windows/Firefox choked either on the $ or the open parens. I cut and
pasted the rest and it came right up. What a PITA!
I could not download it with wget (even with proper quoting to
protect the wierdnesses), but by cut and pasting it into a browser I was
able to get to it -- then save the image with a sane name.
I grabbed Google's URL shortener and it spits out nice, tiny URLs.
It's a Firefox add-on which puts a little circular G button on the
location bar. I click it, it loads my clipboard, and I can paste it
anywhere. I switched from another shortener (which wasn't updated for
Firefox at the time) and am happy with it.
