For pics you can right click the image and click on properties, for videos you may have to quote the post to grab the direct url if it is embedded.

Good suggestion that. Youtube can be a bit picky with all the =embedded stuff it occasionally adds to the URL but that's a nice shortcut for part of what you want to do.
