 * Hi folks,
 * With the function `'wp get attachment image'` you can set the size to use, however,
   I am wanting the size to be set by whatever the user picks for the image in the
   media uploader. Is this possible? Currently we have to set ‘medium’, ‘full’ etc,
   but surely it would work if we could set whatever the user selects.
 * Currently my code looks like this:
 *     ```
       <ul class="project-individual-image-container">
       <?php
       $args = array(
       	'post_type' => 'attachment',
       	'post_status' => null,
       	'post_parent' => $post->ID,
       	'exclude'     => get_post_thumbnail_id(),
       	'order'       => ASC,
       	'orderby'	  => menu_order,
       	'post_mime_type' => 'image',
       	'numberposts'	=> -1,
       );
       $attachment_page = get_attachment_link( $attachment_id );
       $attachments = get_posts($args);
       	if ($attachments) {
       		foreach ($attachments as $attachment) {
       			echo '<li>'.wp_get_attachment_image($attachment->ID, '').'</li>';
       		}
       	}
       ?>
       </ul>
       ```
   
 * Thanks,
    Richard

 * Choosing a size from the ‘Add media’ screen doesn’t seem to do anything.
