Image link URLs getting changed automatically? (6 posts)

    When I upload an image into my Media on my blog, and link to the file directly in a post, Wordpress is automatically changing the URL of the link to point to a page that shows a medium-sized thumbnail of the image embedded in the blog's Theme. From there, you can click on the image again to view the full sized image on its own. I want to be able to link to files in my blogs directly, and skip that middle page that shows the medium-sized thumbnail, but Wordpress keeps overriding my attempts to do this. Having to click on the image twice seems pointless to me. How can I fix this issue?

    When you upload the image, in the image options screen it presents to you, there's a section called "Image links to". Pick something else.

    I see Title, Alternate Text, Caption, Description, and URL. Nothing about Image Links To.
