easy way to cross-ref BG images
use the [cite:xxx] format, where xxx = Photo# from the url, also found at the upper right of the image (733961 in this case)

simply type "...ID originally requested at [cite:733961]" and it will turn into "...ID originally requested at (1)"

the [thumb:xxx] format will insert thumbnail:
"...ID originally requested at "
