Image URLs
You can construct a source image Url fairly easily given an image Id.
URLs are constructed by first padding the image Id with leading zeros if the image Id has less than 6 digits, the first 3 digits from this number form the first directory and the last 3 digits form the next. You then add on the image Id itself (non-padded) then choose the size that is needed from the table below. URLs take this general format.
