The maximum size for embedding images on web sites is 800px. The default media:content element in each photo entry links to the 1600px image (the one you were trying to get). You have to request your photos from GData with a "imgmax=800" parameter. That will change the content link to reference the 800px version of the photo.
The inconsistent behavior that you are seeing comes from cached/non- cached images (our server side cache that is). The size limitation is only enforced for non-cached images. So when you visit our web UI for a certain image, the one-up view will pull that image at 1600px, thereby also adding it to our image cache. When you requested the image in Firefox, you received the image from the cache. Make sure you have the imgmax=800 in all your Gdata requests and a "s800" path component will be added to all the content links.
