That damned Google+ Picasa redirect

Hey Google - when I send someone a Picasa album or pic link, where do you think I want them to go?  Answer: Not Google+

This can be fixed by adding a "noredirect=1" argument to the URL but placement matters:

This works:

https://picasaweb.google.com/102190732096693814506/DropBox?noredirect=1#5822348278420254786

This doesn't:

https://picasaweb.google.com/102190732096693814506/DropBox#5822348278420254786?noredirect=1

This concludes our lesson.
