Getting a post from an attachment ID.

Hello!

I was wondering if anyone could help.
A long time ago, I found this attachment in a thread (http://forums.macrumors.com/attachme...7&d=1086885415), a Photoshop one if I recall. This wasn't the original thread.

So I was wondering if anyone knows how to find the post that it was originally a part of, purely out of interest.

Thanks!

Open the picture in a new tab, click on the picture and use the “Save Image As...” option from the contextual menu. Your browser should show you now the real file name of the attachment. Copy the file name (including the file name extension), and use Google to find the thread, which contains the picture. In your case:
http://www.google.com/search?num=30&....macrumors.com
