I don't know if it is just me, but I find that Flickr has the worst navigation tools of any of the photo- sharing sites. For example, if you are looking at the largest size, I see no obvious way to navigate to the next image--you have to go back, select the next image, and then enlarge that. And there is the issue with the shape of thumbnails that Mark noted.
